I am running BSD and WIN95 on the first drive, and LINUX and DOS6.22 on the second. I haven't been able to get booteasy to boot the linux stuff, so had been booting linux from floppy. I got real creative and set up LILO to boot WIN95, DOS, and Linux, but for some reason WIN95 won't work. Along the same lines, I have heard of this software called "System Commander", but I can't seem to find any reference to it on the Web or elsewhere. Does anyone know who makes this?
