I have pqmagic with pqmagic boot, and win98 on my system.
win98 is on one partition. I have another partition setup for drdos as a
fat16 format, which is also a primary partion.
i have tried to use fdisk to set the drdos partion active so i can load
drdos 7.2 from dc-rom. this always fails the system hangs. there is nothing
on the drdos partition at this time.
but for the life of me i can't get drdos from cd-rom to the drdos partition.
if i try to initialize the drdos partition from windows i'm always told to
got to ms-dos mode and load drdos, but that fails aslo.
whats the easiest method to load drdos to a partition after win98 is
installed.
thanks,
Mike Friedrichs
