- Lets mention the obvious before we run off. Has anyone tried an alternate
- boot manager (not ibm or miceysoft) ? How about posing the question to
- MS directly (assume CI$) as to how to arrange a dual boot, explaining carefully
- that you are devloping for both operating systems in tandem and it will be
- a cold day below before we get sucked into this stupid little tiff ?
-
- I missed the first part of this discuss. Can someone re-inform me as to how
- NT refuses to run ? My understanding of the boot manager is that after it
- selects a partition, the only way to determine what your boot source is
- would be to start searching other partitions for os/2 code.
