Emm thank you all. I have another very strange problem. The entry of the partition table (es:di) is 0x0:0x7CE (should be 0x0:0x1CE) in VMWare, booting from partition 1 (starting at zero). What's going on?

And how did you come up with the "should be 0x0:0x1CE" part? What is going is that you can't read properly.lweb20 wrote:Emm thank you all. I have another very strange problem.

Re: Current drive?
Can we trust your observations then? It is as of yet still a completely valid concern.erase that image
The answer is probably no because the remainder of your previous post contains one number I can't assert, and another blatant error, which makes the majority of your stated facts provably wrong.
[Edit]Today's ninja pointed that other error out for you

Code: Select all
0x 7 C E
111 1100 1110b
0x 1 C E
001 1100 1110b
EDIT: and my real partition index is 1 (starting in zero)

Re: Current drive?
A thread lock since your question has by all means been answered, and I'm going to save other people's time by not letting them bother finding out the actual truth..
