I wouldn't think the LBA aware type would have kept your system from booting. I thought that only affected Win9x and IFS driver. Glad you got it working anyways. On Tue, Feb 2, 2016 at 9:20 PM, Paul Dufresne wrote: > >What exact partition i.d. is your FAT? Perhaps it needs to be LBA > >aware (

You probably do need to use `fdisk /MBR:80`. 80h was the traditional IO port for the first BIOS HDD. IIRC, 00h for Floppy A:, 01h for Floppy B:, all non-removables (usually meaning HDD) start at 80h. This may be different for a BIOS (some Dell, Compaq, HP BIOSes, IIRC) that supports Zip 100/250

Your suggestion to "fdisk /mbr:81" (81=D:) was making much sense to me because the disk was having grub on it before I erase all with fdisk to make place for FreeDOS. So yes, it made sense that grub being installed in MBR might made me not having normal MBR. But trying "fdisk /mbr:81" have not help
