Ok...I need to be able to boot from my live cd, create a FAT32
partition, make it boot able, then remove the live CD,and reboot to the
HDD into DOS.
Now, I have the partitioning down:
sfdisk /dev/sda < ./disk.info - where disk.info = 1,730,c,*. This
creates a 6GB Fat32 (LBA) partition set to bootable.
Formatting:
mkdosfs -s 8 -F /dev/sda1
And I have the DOS IO.SYS MSDOS.SYS and COMMAND.COM copied in THAT order.
When I try to boot, it just doesn't. It's like there is no FDISK.
DOS tools are not an option here. It *must* be created with linux.
Any ideas?
Unfortunately it's not that simple. Somewhere along the way you have
to tell the bootloader where are those files. Try this util
