Hello! I'm trying to boot the FreeDOS boot floppy [1] from GRUB2 with the loopback module under QEMU (but the same happens on a real system). On the GRUB2 console I have: ===== grub> loobpack (fd0) (hd0,1)/boot/fdboot.img grub> chainloader (hd0,1)/boot/fdboot.img grub> boot FreeDOS =====
And the system freezes. I also tried the DOS 6.22 fd image at [2], but with the same commands above I obtain: ===== Non-System disk or disk error Replace and press any key when ready ===== BTW, both fd images works OK when tested directly in QEMU, i.e. with `qemu -fda $IMG`. Now, is it possible to load a fd image from GRUB2? And if yes, where's the error in my case? Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca Footnotes: [1] http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1.0/fdboot.img [2] http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm
