Subject: questions about loader.

Hi all.

It feels like I'm stupid ... but, I am having a hard time getting loader
to work.
I have ms-dos 6.20
installed in the root sector of my harddrive as required.
I also have copied ibmbio.com ibmdos.com to the root of the same drive
from caldera 7.01.
I used the attrib command from caldera to +r +s +a +h the ibmbio.com and
ibmdos.com
files.

Now how do I tell loader where the command.com shell is for the
version of dos that gets loaded when I press f1,f2 etc.

I do have loader working and the right dos comes up when I press the
right f key.
But, the caldera dos says improper command com type the filename ...
when I type c:\opendos\command.com it works great.

Thanks
Sam
