Is there a known problem when booting with DRDOS 7.03beta where there
is an error message about reading from drive 129 (I only have one hard
disk in my system) twice as it booots up?

Also: does anybody know enough about the OS/2 boot manager to describe
how to avoid messing up the boot menu when using non-OS2 fdisk programs
to insert/delete partitions??  I lost my OS/2 option from the menu when
creating a couple of linux partitions during a RH Linux install even
though the partition didn't go.  This has happened before and it is a
nuisance booting several OS/2 diskettes just to fix it.
