Please advise .... > Try http://www.simon.org.ua/uniload/, unfortunately I don't have enough time to develop it and you have to install it from DOS (there is version for FreeBSD, Linux, but it is out of date and doesn't work on new system). Size of Uniload is more than 512 bytes, that's why it looks better, you can install it on floppy and check if your systems can be booted with Uniload and if everything is Ok, you can install it on hard disk (install.exe program will check if your hard disk has extra sectors after MBR for Uniload). Please install Uniload on hard disk from floppy disk, if something will go wrong you can restore changed sectors on your hard disk with install.exe and backuped file created before by install.exe.
