I have done this in the past and with the same CD and bigger Hard Drive but now it is giving a problem I can't figure out how to bypass it. Here is the scenario:
I have a PC with 2 HDD (First: 13Gig, Second: 8Gig) AOpen AX6BC motherboard, 64 MB, Pentium 2 350Mhz, Sound Blaster Live, 3Com Network card, Nvidia FX Video Card.
I created two partitions on the first (13Gig) HDD, one of 10MB formatted as FAT16 made it bootable and copied over Amithlon files and all is fine. If I reboot, Amithlon will start just fine from the first partition.
The problem starts when I create on the rest of the disk, a new partition and change the type to 118 (Amithlon_vhd). If I reboot, amithlon will start like before but it shows a message on the left hand corner of the screen, before going into workbench: "Not a DOS disk in device dh0:" and "Cancel" or "Retry" won't do anything.
I tried to boot from the Amithlon CD, I thought I would bypass the whole setup, and to my surprise I get the same message.
If I delete the second partition which I changed to be type 118 (decimal, Amithlon_vhd) everything boots fine, CD and first partition with amithlong files on it.
I have done the same steps in the past with another machine and it worked like a charm.
I don't understand. Anyone can shed some light here???
Thanks in advance
