RE: boot from harddisk

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Ensure the configuration file on the setup disk is setup properly. Open
and edit the boot.ini file on the setup disk and ensure
that nk.bin is set as the 'binfile' and eboot.bix set as the 'bakbinfile':

(In boot.ini)
# Primary BIN file name
BinFile=nk.bin

# Secondary BIN file name. Used when BinFile fails.
BakBinFile=eboot.bix


Then, to get biosloader to work, the general procedure is as follows:

1. Partition the HDD such that the partition is less than 511MB (for old
biosloader versions)
2. Format the partition
3. Run MKDISK C: (assuming drive letter is C)
4. Copy boot.ini, splash.bmx, eboot.bix, and your nk.bin files from the
setup disk to the hard drive

There may be an issue in the BLDR binary on the setup disk. If it has
freezing problems loading NK.BIN then I would recompile biosloader after
setting the define READ_BUFFER_LENGTH_MAX to 0x3000 instead of 0x4000.
