Subject: HowTo make bootable file image from /dev/hda1
Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2003 18:17:11 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20031027181711.2c42e9bb.tonyb@sysdev.org> (raw)

Has anybody made a successful boot image from a fat16
partition for use with dosemu 1.99

I have the partition mounted as /dosc but that drive
is going away, so need to virtualize to a file image.

Tried
 dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/hdimage etc...
 mkfatimage16 -k32768 -f hdimage -b /dosc /dosc

tried dd of the mbr to a separate file in combination
with the above and none work???

Thanks in advance,
TonyB
