[comp.os.msdos.misc] 5note #2: booting dos from xenix

davidsen@crdos1.crd.ge.COM (Wm E Davidsen Jr) (06/18/91)

On a Dell 325 I have Xenix/386 and MS-DOS 5.0. If I power up and say
"dos" at the "boot:" prompt, DOS loads normally, including emm386. If I
run xenix for a while and then boot dos, the emm386 doesn't start, but
gives an error message.

Possible fix: playing with the A20 handler used...

Suggestions or actual solutions are most welcome.
