- The Coherent masterboot allows you to select to boot from 8 partitions,
- 4 from drive C: and 4 from drive D:. The Coherent documentation doesn't
- say anything, that the root partition must reside on drive C:. The
- installation procedure offers you partitions from drive D:, if available,
- to install Coherent. Coherent is the only OS, which I know, what may
- be booted from a partition from drive D:! Very well done by MWC!
