FreeCOM fails to load string resources #55

Kernel is booted from drive A:. Chances are high it has something to do with COMSPEC, as FreeCOM indicates. Additional info: no CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT. It should nevertheless work, even without these files and manuall specifying COMSPEC.

Bonus exercise: System crashes if "exit" is entered at the FreeCOM (process 0) command prompt, probably because the shell terminates, which it should not.

For this to work FreeCOM had to be modified to accept the config environment stored containing COMSPEC.
