Strange...
I went ahead and did an un-con format straight out.
I reinstalled 6.22 and it wouldn't boot so I used sys c: and it wouldn't boot again.
I dir c: and only
command.com
wina20.386
config.sys
autoexec.bat
files show up so I tried to copy the others from a: to c: and they are already there, hidden.
autoexec.bat has
c:\dos\smartrdrv.exe /x
@echo off
prompt $p$g
path c:\dos
set temp=c:\dos
config.sys has
device c:\dos\setver.exe
device c:\dos\highmem.sys
dos=high
files=30
scratching my head.........
If the cd and the floppy boot, do you think something might be going on with the mbr or is it something else???
BTW, I have Debian on another hd and it boots just fine how ever it does have grub on it.
Now that i think about it, well the problems were before I installed Debian on the other drive.
I was careful to disable each drive via bios before I install each of the OSes.
However, one thing I did notice was that while I had the first primary drive disabled, when I installed Debian on the second slave, it showed the first drive, as the third and it's drive as first.
how in the *censored* it saw that drive is beyond me... That said, do you think that when Debian was installing and installed grub, which I believe was on it's drive, could it have done something to the "hidden" first drive?
Right now, when I installed 6.22, I have the third drive hidden. something is up..........
