fixmbrI am sorry, I don't follow you. What does this mean?
What I meant, was that I don't know how to force fdisk /mbr to choose the *correct* destination drive. What I have done, is that on a DOS prompt (under Win98SE pure DOS mode), have typed this:
c:\
fdisk /mbrnothing happned.
Then I changed to my CF drive letter:
cd D:\
D:
typed fdisk /mbrnothing happens.
How do I know if I am invoking this command for the proper drive?
out fellow member dr_st mentioned that installing Win98 after 2k will destroy the 2k boot sector and you will have to repair.
so i mentioned that on the recovery console you cvan type use the fixboot tool to recreate the 2k boot sector, so it is not a big deal.
fixmbr tool will recreate the master boot record.
