I can't remember just how it booted, but I do remember
that at one time, I had four primary partitions on my
486. The first partition had OpenDOS7.01 and windo$e95,
the second was DrDOS7.03, the third Slackware3.5, and the
fourth PTS DOS. I was prolly using the PTS bootloader, or
LILO, or Loadlin, or all the above. I used to use a PTS
bootdisk alot, because I liked it's Fdisk. It only used
two install disks, and offered a version of Arachne at
install. It seemed to pack alot of stuff onto just two
floppies.

Hey, Sam
I used PTS DOS quite sometime back. I liked it, it didn't
take up much space, had a nice file manager, partition
manager, and didn't have to be next to the MBR to install
or boot. It would even ask what partition I wanted it to
install too. It was used by the Russian military, back when.
Is it still under development?
Rob
Don't know if it is still under development.
Do you mean to say that PTS DOS comes with a dual boot loader
program so that you can install that version of DOS in a Linux
machine or in a Winnows machine so that you can easily set it
up so that a boot menu comes up asking you whether you want to
boot PTS DOS, or Linux, or whether, as a last choice, you just
want to boot up to Micro$oft Winnows?
