Create a directory where you want the dos partition to be. Lets call it dos/ in /. then just issue a command mount partition /dos where partition is /dev/hd??, where your dos partition is located. You may have to specify a filesystem type: mount -t type partition /dos For that to work the support for that file system type has to be compiled into kernel (dos and vfat are usually there by default). > Also, is there any program that will let me choose which operating system to > boot up with? > Any help is greatly appreciated.
