unicorn is on a distinguished road
freezer121: Bootit NG does change the MBR (Master Boot Record) of the harddrive to something they call EMBR - I would guess that means Extended ditto. No worries so far. The EMBR, and now I'm guessing, contains the extended information needed for NG when keeping track of up to 200 primary partitions and so on. I haven't investigated this as I'm not intended to try the multiboot feature of NG and so haven't installed it.

When booting with NG boot floppy I click cancel and by doing so one is taken to something called "Maintenance mood" (instead of actually installing NG on the HDD).

To be continued.
