Mark Clark:
No, I had no idea. You mean DOS will need to be loaded befor LINUX
each time. Loaded=booted?
Yes.
So, you're going to need a system dos partition with:
io.sys [normally hidden]
msdos.sys [normally hidden]
command.com
config.sys
movepci.sys
loadlin.exe [or equivalent]
whatever else you feel you need, like probably a linux kernel...
My config.sys is basically:
device=c:\movepci.sys
shell=c:\command.com /p /k c:\boot.bat
boot.bat is, basically:
loadlin vmlinuz TERM=linux
