Booting from floppy

#1 Post by marc66thomas »

I have been able to get loaded into puppy w/ (bad video) at 1024 x 768
I have dell latitude LM p133 40m ram 2g HD. This machine needs fb800X600 frame buffered I have a working partition with DSL installation How would I specify video resolution using the new boot floppy.

Any suggestion?
in the boot floppy I see the line for the config.sys:
!SHELL=A:\COMMAND.COM A:\ /E:1024 /F /MSG /P=A:\AUTOEXEC.BAT

If I change it to:
!SHELL=A:\COMMAND.COM A:\ /E:800 /F /MSG /P=A:\AUTOEXEC.BAT

would I be close?
