Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Preparing new HDD for eCS -- boot manager issue

Content Type: text/plain

OK it's finally happening=2E Need a bit of help=2E

I have HDD partitioned for BM (FAT) DOS (FAT), W2K (FAT32), 4 logical FAT
partitions for data sharing, and 3 unformatted partitions ready for
formatting as HPFS for install of eCS=2E

Question is about boot manager=2E =20

I used Partition Magic 8 but when I install its Bootmagic it does not
appear to go onto first partition I set aside; it seems actually to reside=

somewhere in the extended partition, as I discovered when I accidentally
set its type to 0E=2E I'd rather use the old stuff I'm familiar with if=

there is no downside=2E

What can I use to put the old IBM Boot Manager on the first partition=3F =
I
still have the old Partition Magic V 2 which I recall has this=2E Or what=

else
could I use now=3F (I have a lot of stuff lying around; someone pls remin=
d
me what are the alternatives=2E)

Thanks for all help=2E Looking forward to seeing all the gang at Warpstoc=
k=2E
