Hi; I've come across a couple o' programs which may be of interest to the members of this list. http://www.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/bootutil/mwrload.zip ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/bootutil/mwrload.zip 51496 bytes mwrload.zip Boot loader runs up to 4 O/S on 1 PC. Freeware MWRLOAD is a Freeware boot loader utility program that lets you run up to four different operating systems on one PC. You just hold down the ctrl key when rebooting and the loader prompts you for which O/S to boot and run. The loader and install programs are included, along with full source code for all programs. The loader is not O/S specific and should work on any standard PC with any O/S. It has been successfully tested with many versions of DOS, OS2, Win 3x, Win 9x, Win NT, Linux, and Win 2000 Beta. The included install programs are intended for DOS, but could be easily modified to work in any O/S. Warning: This program modifies the Master Boot Record on your hard disk so it is not for the faint of heart. If you are not comfortable running hard disk partitioning software like FDISK, you should not try to use this program. On the other hand, if you make a mistake, it is easy to recover using a bootable diskette with the FDISK program on it. Recovery and uninstall instructions are included. MWRLOAD is a very useful tool for those power users who want to run more than one O/S on a single PC. The source code is also useful for learning about how your PC really works. Special requirements: Bootable diskette with FDISK on it. Freeware. Marty W.

Eight colorful pages of on-line help explain clearly all the options; examples are included. TDel can automatically install itself to run instead of the DEL command. Special requirements: None.
