Any ideas on how to configure a machine to be able to select between Unix (any flavor), OS/2, and MS-DOS on a single machine? That is, select which O.S. to load? This is an extension of the boot option OS/2 gives when there are both OS/2 and DOS partitions on a hard drive. I don't think OS/2 will let you pick a third OS -- could be wrong though... -jk -- Jim Kenyon -- jkenyon@css.itd.umich.edu University of Michigan, 401 Washtenaw Ave Division of Kinsesiology, Motor Behavior Lab Ann Arbor, MI 48109 -- (313) 763-0498

It currently recognizes OS/2 MSDOS UNIX and a variety of others. If you can venture to GEnie, you will find it in the unix RT. --- rick@lrark.UUCP * bang path --> uunet!ddi1!lrark!rick * Ricky Mobley * LRTUG (501) 224-9454 * 1800 Sanford Dr. #4 * GEnie Unix RT SysOp address LRARK * Little Rock, AR 72207 * WB5FDP.AR.USA.NA wb5fdp.ampr.org *
