Subject: Making a partition bootable under dos
Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2005 18:30:16 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200507251830.16617.jsowden@americansentry.net> (raw)
In order for me to feel safe with the dos programs tht I run under
linux/dosemu, I also have an option to boot directly to a dos from grub.
I have gone into fdisk (linux's fdisk) and make /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda2
bootable. hda1 is a fat32 partition, hda3 is my linux root partition. when
I run suse 9.3, no problem, but when I try to boot to dos, it says 'not a
bootable drive'. what do i need to do. I am currently running freedos with
4dos as a command.com.
