Hi again:

This is a multi-boot question:
Using the documentation provided by Ian Cowell, MU, Department of
Computing from 23 Feb 99 at the site:
http://minix1.hampshire.edu/faq/NT.html, I setup my NT loader to allow
me to boot Minix from my menu of options (Win 98, WinNT, and now Minix
too).

I followed the instructions to the letter, and yet when I select the
Minix option from my menu, I only get a blank screen. Minix never boots.

Anyone solve this problem or have ideas?   I spent 6 hours yesterday
trying variations on Ian Cowell's idea, and got nothing to work.

Thanks in advance!
Sara
