Since you cannot boot with the doc2000 installed, I'd recommend trying the
following, **very carefully**:
1. Turn off system
2. Remove DoC from board (I assume it's an ISA/PCI board with DoC socketed?)
3. Install *empty* DoC board
4. Boot into DOS
5. Install latest M-Sys DOS utilities (if not already done)
6. *** CAREFULLY *** install DoC into socket
7. Run DFORMAT utility to replace grub firmware
*Disclaimer: This procedure has worked for me, but it could do *bad things*
to your DoC. Use it only as a last resort.
If your machine supports "Network" boot, you may want to try configuring GRUB
with the "--enable-diskonchip-biosnetboot" option. This will allow you to
selectively boot from the DoC, returning to booting from a hard drive or
floppy when needed.
