 |
|
Hello,
I'm trying to run a bootloader from this tutorial:
http://www.osdever.net/tutorials/hello_btldr.php
It says you can copy the file on a floppy with DEBUG:
DEBUG file
-w 100 0 0 1
- q
When I try to run DEBUG, i get the following error:
File not found
I've assembled the file with NASM. The output file was a 512byte long
filke without an extension. If I try to assemble with MASM, I get lots
of errors: Must be in segment block.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
The nNoob |

Presumeably, it is DEBUG which isn't found?
Or is it that DEBUG can't find 'file'?
Presumeably your OS is win95, win98, XP?

DEBUG won't handle long filenames. What is the name of the file
you are trying to use?

The filename is bootloader. |

That is a long filename. bootloader is more than 8 bytes long.
Try: bootldr.asm or something like that. 8.3. eight chars in the
name, 3 chars in the extension. |
