Re: Slightly o/t - Booting to DOS

Me too.

I use a DOS boot disk in the floppy for DOS or pull it out for Win.

I do know that you can tap (repeatidly) the F8 key while booting to
get to the selection screen, just after the CMOS test, and before the
first Win splash screen. Not a good fix, but workable.

My problem is that for T-CNC I want not run Emm386 or Himem to let T-
CNC work with slightly better performance. And that would need a
seperate autoexec.bat and config.sys files
