XTIDE - boot menu callback via int 18h

[Randy Dawson]

Thanks all for getting me going.


I cheated at first with a real Maxtor 20 GB hard drive, and Alexadre's suggestion to FDISK with just a few cylinders, and that worked.


Now, going to a CF card, same plan, no errors with FDISK, FORMAT C:/s, and I can see command.com is there if I boot from a floppy.

I am able to read/write to the CF just fine, copy to it with /V and all OK.


It will not boot from XTIDE, and I get this error.


I read that some CF will not work.


Can you recommend ones that do, and I will go get one.


They one giving me trouble is:


Sandisk Ultra II, I have had it for years in the junkbox.


SDCFH-2048 is what XTIDE reports.


Will a new, current CF fix the problem?


Enlighten me on what boot menu callback means.


Thanks,


Randy
