I cannot use os-bs on 1.7 Gig drive. Message-ID: <klee.760727150@imagen> Summary: I cannot switch between two operating systems. Keywords: 1.7 Gig drive Sender: usenet@aqm.com Nntp-Posting-Host: imagen Organization: imagen Date: 8 Feb 94 17:05:50 GMT Lines: 24 I just bought 1.7 Gig Micropolis IDE drive, partitioned 520MB for DOS and rest for NetBSD. I installed DOS, and NetBSD 0.9. When I boot, the NetBSD comes up. When I had two operating systems on smaller disk(340MB), I did not have any trouble switching the operating system using os-bs program. But when I install it on this drive, it has trouble switching the operating system. At first, it booted the NetBSD fine, but it could not boot DOS. When I format the DOS drive, and re-install DOS, it cannot find the NetBSD. Can anybody help? or do I need to switch the operating system by booting DOS from floppy? It is so convenient to have that OS-BS. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Kang. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kang H.
