I tried several ways how to create a multiboot system on my PC. I use simple
boot manager BOOTMGR from this site: http://www.bttr-software.de/products/
bootmgr/
As you maybe know the MSDOS is not able to boot from 81h drive. Even if you
run the bootsector using bootmanager the IO.SYS is not able to load itself
and work.
In FreeDOS kernel (tried with 2041) it is quite different because it
succesfully boots from 81h drive but (FD)CONFIG.SYS is loaded from the first
primary partition on 80h drive. The same with AUTOEXEC.BAT.
The C:\ partition is on 80h drive although it was not the boot drive.
So my question is if this behaviour is planned or not. For my needs is this
OK but isn't it a bug?
And we should test if the KERNEL.SYS from 81h drive is loaded complete. It
is possible that some parts are loaded from 81h drive and some from 80h
drive as I have this file on both disks.
