kabrera Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 Just curious as to what method people are using to have a IMA file with partition magic 8. Files are 3.4 megs, and I can only emulate a 2.88 floppy with winimage.so can anyone shed a little info here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 Are you sure youve done it properly using the part magic floppies & inject with Winimage to make the ima file? Flyakite has an excellent guide in his multiboot guide try following? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 Partition Magic 8 only makes 2 floppies, this fits fine in a 2.88MB IMA file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosh Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 ya, like aaron said. Using winimage you can make a 2.88 meg image, then you can add files to it. Partition magic 8 should only be about 2 megs.-gosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kabrera Posted April 2, 2004 Author Share Posted April 2, 2004 I was just copying the DOS folder from the PM8 install, I didn't run a menu. The files were taking up more space I guess. When doing it the wrong way winimage flashes an error and doesnt add all the files. And them I was trying to test it with VirtualPC which complained about the file, but loading it from the cdshell worked. Took me a few tries to figure that one out.thanks for the help..
