Subject: [Freedos-user] Boot FreeDOS from secondary HDD

Hi all,
I've installed FreeDOS a half year ago. I chose the option to update
boot.ini for Windows XP, so the FreeDOS boot sector is stored in
"freedos.bss", and I could chose FreeDOS from Windows XP's boot menu.
Since that, things have changed. I've got a new hard drive, and made
it to be the primary HDD (IDE master), and my old HDD is now the
secondary one (IDE slave). Of course, drive letters have changed. My
old C: drive became J: - then I thought it's ok to add this line to my
actual boot.ini:
J:\FREEDOS.BSS="FreeDOS"
But it doesn't work, FreeDOS won't boot. Well, it would be nice if I
could keep my FreeDOS on the old HDD, and I wouldn't need to reinstall
it to my new one. So I'd like to use my old FreeDOS installation. Any
ideas?
Thanks,
MegaBrutal
