Compact flash ARC path

[Cato Svellingen]

Hi,

trying to boot from Compact Flash connected to IDE Secondary Slave.

What ARC path should I use if there is No other HD connected ?

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(3)partition(1) ???
or
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1) ???

And what if there is another primary Master connected and i want dual boot
option ??


Thanks

Cato

Make multi OS boot.ini with:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(2)partition(1)
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(3)partition(1)

Put some timeout and try.

Regards,
Slobodan

Your flash disk can be set as a fixed disk or removable disk. (refer to
vendor of the FLASH disk)
If set for fixed disk I have success using
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
No matter if it is the seccondary IDE, the disk is the first and given
number 0

As I know, the XPE cannot boot from a FLASH disk wich is set as removable

It can.

But it can't use more than one partition.
