[Freedos-user] dual boot

2016-01-02 Thread Nils Stavlid
Hello,
just created a FAT32 partition (alongside NTFS partition with windows xp
installed) and installed FreeDOS 1.1 from CD on that partition. However,
I´m unable to get to boot FreeDOS, win xp jumps in every time. Since I´m
totaly newbie I´m hoping for someone to help me out...

Best regards & Happy new year!

Your Windows XP boot.ini file needs an entry added for your FreeDOS so that
you'll see a boot selection menu after POST completes. Start with
http://best-windows.vlaurie.com/boot-ini.html and if that's not good enough
try http://fm.no-ip.com/PC/install-doz-after.html
