Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] What is BDI? Need help please

hi Group I have every thing just about ready . I downloaded the newest
BDI from the ftp site but my 166 will not boot from the cd rom I went
looking in the cd to find the floppy boot I think I have it , but when I
put it in and started up the system it keeps on telling me I do not have a
proper sytem disk in it .

Also I have just partition the hard drive (drive was a new 1.7gig) does
this have to done first or does the BDI do this for you when you get it up
and running from the cd Rom .

Thank you
John Brauweiler


Thanks group
