I have very little clue regarding cdrom booting but is the cdrom _only_ available as a faked floppy thru the BIOS, or is it just that the BIOS simply boots from it (i.e., loading sector 0) and the CDROM is still available through the BIOS as a seperate drive? In the latter case, the boot loader could simply use the other drive to load the rest via the BIOS. That's at least what I would consider logical, no doubt BIOS manufacturers have messed that up, of course. -- Matthias Buelow home: mkb/at/mukappabeta.de uni: mkb/at/informatik.uni-wuerzburg.deReceived on Sun May 04 2003 - 15:18:36 UTC
