Frequently Asked Questions...

... About Autoload:

Q: Autoload gives some strange errors, running with Caldera DR-OpenDOS, what does it mean?

A: There was a bug in the first release of Autoload that prevented the program from running under Caldera DR-OpenDOS. The second release was made to fix the problem. You can download it at our download-page.


... About Boot2C:

Q: How do I uninstall Boot2C, so that I can boot on my floppy again?

A: It's unfortunately more or less impossible to create a general uninstall program, due to the various operating systems with which BOOT2C can be used.

Assuming that you're using MS-DOS or Windows, you can do the following:

Option 1:
Run the command

SYS A:
from the commandline. This will copy the systemfiles (io.sys, msdos.sys, and command.com) to your floppy AND overwrite the bootrecord, where BOOT2C resides, thereby removing BOOT2C from the floppy.

Option 2:
Copy the files you need from the floppy, and format the disk as a systemdisk, then copy the files back to the floppy.
