Hi all,
I am using Virtual Floppy Drive for my OS development. After assembling my boot.asm file, when I try to write to the first sector using the command,

Code: Select all

partcopy boot.bin 0 200 -f0 0
, i receive "Divide error" message in the command prompt. partcopy fails to write the binary to the first sector. Why does this happen? But, when i restart my machine and reload my VFD, it's workin'.

Thanks.

You don't need the last zero ( I never used it ), and apparently it doesn't even function normally with it.
