Dual Boot systems
Even though you have WinXP on D:, the boot sector that you want to fix is the one on C:, the system partition. No matter where WinXP is installed (D: in your case), the boot process always starts with the first primary partition on the first physical drive - almost always Drive C: - which must be set Active.

"OS/2 unable to boot" - Resolved. It's FP14 FDISK!
/dev/boot is on hd0a and /dev/root is on /dev/hd24. (Another HD off the 50-pin port on the 29160 had been installed BEFORE the 2nd LVD drive - so that's why OSR504 root is on /dev/hd24.) I am using the ad160 driver that is for OSR505 since there was none for OSR504 and it worked on OSR504.

One of the options you will find will be to change the boot order of the drives. Select 'c:' as the first boot drive, and then when you exit the BIOS, select the option to save any changes made. The computer should the restart and boot from c: with no further input needed from you. Hobo jvminn.
