- Hello All.
-
- I'm just getting into configuring my system for OS/2. I have a question
- about the boot manager. I'd appreciate any help on this one!
-
- My HD setup:
-
- Drive 1: 410MB Drive
- C: 25MB Primary Partition, FAT; DR-DOS 6.0
- E: 84MB Logical Partition, FAT; DATA
- F:100MB Logical Partition, FAT; DOS/WIN applications
- G:100MB Logical Partition, FAT; DOS/WIN applications
- H:100MB Logical Partition, HPFS; OS/2 and OS/2 applications
- *: 1MB BOOT MANAGER
-
- Drive 2: 100MB Drive
- D:100MB Primary Partition, FAT; MS-DOS 5.0 is installed.
-
- Using FDISKPM, My boot manager has entries for DR-DOS and OS/2. I want to add
- one for MS-DOS 5.0. The problem is, whenever I select drive 2, I cannot change
- any attributes of the partition. I cannot add it to the menu, or give it
- a name. (Or even delete it). I'd like to add it to my menu. Any suggestions
- on how to it, or a reason why I can't? Please reply by E-mail.
-
- Thanks for any info,
- Phil
