Hello,
I had FreeDOS as the only system on my CF card, but I had to scale
down the FAT32 partition and make space for Gentoo Linux. After
installing the other system, FreeDOS can't boot. Probably because the
volume boot record was thrashed during the partition resize. Is there
any way to reinstall only this component?
FIrst check if the partition of FreeDOS is still set as "active".
Multiple OS on one disk doesn't install automatically any form of dual
boot and Gentoo is one of the rather peculiar Linux distros. You also
might check into installing GRUB or any other boot loader from your
Linux distro.
If you just want to get FreeDOS back up and running, try running FDISK
C: /MBR from a FreeDOS boot media (floppy disk or CD)...
