And it does not work on SCSI drives either - I tried it on my half IDE / half SCSI box with a floppy and a SCSI disk -- 'stage1_lba' just barfed "Error LBA" or something and the game was over. However - colors are extremely cute and much appreciated - I tried some just to get that exciting feeling new features usually induce. Thanks a lot. :-) BTW - am I right if I suspect that floppy drives are something the stage2 emulator does not yet understand? (You see - people are quite lazy and don't want to leave their OS - not even for something as important as a bootloader installation to an ext2 formatted floppy disk...) ;-) /bye Dirk
