Th3_uN1Qu3 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I don't get what you're saying. You want to update your computer's BIOS from the startup disk? As the RAM disk's letter is assigned after your last partition's letter, or as C: if you don't have any partitions defined. I've never seen it assigned as A:.To get a "B:" drive you'll need to have two floppy drives installed in the computer, and insert the boot floppy in the second one.

jaclaz Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Yes, you can.You can use grub4dos to "exchange" floppies.Example (to be TESTED):title Flip floppies and boot from B:map --mem (fd0)/Floppy.img.gz (fd1)map (fd0) (fd1)map (fd1) (fd0)map --hookroot (fd0)chainloader /IO.SYSor something like that.Get latest grub4dos here:http://grub4dos.jot.com/WikiHomeBrowse here:http://www.boot-land.net/forums/Grub4dos-f66.htmlStart from this one:http://www.boot-land.net/forums/Jaclaz-A-F...mine-t3963.htmljaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
