There's situations where it's really handy to be able to hand edit BOOT.INI
but there doesn't seem to be any readily available capability to do it.
Yes, there is a way to access and modify BOOT.INI through a utility in
Recovery console (I don't remember the name) - but that's not the same as
hand editing, which is what I'm looking for. Actually I use BART PE for this
purpose, but I want something simpler - something readily available on the
PC.
One guy told me to just start recovery console and use EDIT but I tried that
and it tells me EDIT isn't supported in recovery console. Another source
says just boot with the boot floppy (actually that's a Win98 system floppy)
and then edit BOOT.INI. I don't know what they are talking about. If you
boot with the floppy you can't access the NTFS volume - which is where
BOOT.INI is.
Can anybody here tell me if there's a simple way to hand edit BOOT.INI with
out booting Win XP ?
