hehehe, thing is, how do I do that? I am a total newbie to this. I only
know my stuff about DOS/Win. How would I get to a prompt? All I have on
the HD right now is one DOS partition and the other blank one. I see your
logic perfectly, it is the way I want to do it but I don't know enough to
get it done. =) Can you fill me in some more?
So this segmentation fault must be some kind of incompatibility, no?
Thanks a lot,
Tony
