Ah! Can you enlighten me on how to make it boot under NT4.0? I have 
to set the boot partition to the one that invokes NTLDR via the 
special boot sector and otherwise contains MS-DOS, but I want opendos 
in another partition of the first HDD - right now, I boot from 
floppy, since telling NT to chain to the OD partition boot sector 
gives me "Cannot load DOS". I presume this is because most boot 
sectors assume they're being loaded from the partition marked 
"bootable", and OpenDOS is looking on drive C: where DOS lives as 
opposed to drive E: where /it/ lives!


Thanx,
