- Earlier I posted a message saying that I was unable
- to get 386BSD to boot from the HD if I first
- installed DOS 5.0.
-
- The only difference that I know of is that
- I chose the same size of DOS partition, but
- then installed DISKDUBL on the DOS partition.
- Apparently DISKDUBL writes something onto
- the HD outside of the DOS partition, because
- afterwards, when I went to install 386BSD,
- it reported that I had 84 Mg free instead
- of 85.
-
- Now both OS's boot fine. I am still having
- problems with text blinking instead of being
- highlighted.
-
- On to the rest of the install!
