No Operating System Found instead of going to DOS. Mbr 0 /install selm 10 9 "Press F9 for recovery" 0xB 0xDB Now I boot to XP, open EASEUS Partition Master and check the Partition Type on the Properties of each partition.Īfter that I open the directory of mbr.exe on cmd I guess you now have a idea where the boot.ini or something is.
#MACTERMINAL CREATE BOOT PARTITION INSTALL#
Insert CD then follow install procedure, install to D.Īfter that when the PC restarts it automatically shows a menu whether to boot to DOS or XP. Just installed DOS on C: So I guess you already know which is active. 1GBĭidn't set the partition active or anything. Let's just say that I did it the default way.
If the first partition was NOT originally 0xC it is very possible that if you make it 0C (or DB) it won't work.
Mbr 0 /install selm 10 9 "Press F9 for recovery" 0x C 0x DB "I don't know anything about he file system ID it modifies"The selm switch is more flexible.Įach entry in the partition table has an ID, see here: Obviously do NOT test this on your main computer if it contains valuable files - try it on a test system first! (note that I have guessed at the correct drive letters in the above example, because when you boot to WinPE using F9, the WinPE partition will be C:, so the other partitions should be D: and E:). ImageX /capture D: E:\backup.wim "my backup"Īnd if you want to restore the image use: For instance you can use ImageX to make a backup of drive C: like this: Now you have to put an imaging tool such as Ghost or ImageX on the first WinPE partition.

When it boots to the winpe partition you need to run the command mbr 0 /reset to make sure that the next time it boots, it will default to the Windows XP partition. Now you will always get this message when you boot, if you press F9 it will instead boot to the first WinPE partition. Mbr 0 /install selm 10 9 "Press F9 for recovery" 0x7 0xDB
#MACTERMINAL CREATE BOOT PARTITION CODE#
Now you can use this command to install the MBR code Now you can use MBR to hide the first partition by using the command Paritition 3 - NTFS type 07 - Backup partition Partition 2 - NTFS type 07 ACTIVE - Windows XP OS (boots to this partition) Partition 1 - NTFS type 07 - WinPE v2 or version 3 which contains you imaging tool - e.g. Suppose you prepare a hard disk like this This application can be used to make your system boot to a different partition when pressing a Fx key.
Maybe you can help me out with the first one. "I don't know anything about he file system ID it modifies" The command line "mbr 0 /reset" should be run, in order to set the MBRīack to the state it was in before the file system ID and active Once booted in the partition whose file system ID was originally 0xDB, Modified to mark the new boot partition active, and the file system ID With the file system ID 0xDB to be booted from. If the F9 key is pressed within 10 seconds, it will cause a partition
Message "Press F9 to boot the recovery partition" for 10 seconds. Mbr 0 /install selm 10 9 "Press F9 for recovery" 0xC 0xDB The F12 key will cause a hidden FAT/FAT32 to be selected for booting. Message "Press F12 to boot the recovery partition" for 5 seconds, and MBR.EXE will install a MBR to hard drive 0. Mbr 0 /install sel 5 12 "Press F12 to boot the recovery partition" It has a readme with a sample but I need a more delatailed guide and explanation.

I already found the software thanks to your post.
