HOW TO: Create a boot floppy disk to load a bootable partition

[NubeCheCorre]

Hi

I need your help, i would like to create a boot floppy disk in order to use it to boot a partition instead of entering everytime into early startup menu. (i have two boot partitions in my hard-drive, one with amiga os 4.1 and one with amiga os 3.9)

i formatted a disk, installed the bootblock using diropus 4, everything was ok, then i created two directories inside my floppy disk, C and S. Inside S i created a txt file called startup-sequence, here the code of my startup-sequence:

cd dh1:

execute S/Startup-sequence

Inside C i copied the following files:

Assign
CheckRTG
Execute
GetVolumDev
GuessBootDev
MonitorType
Mount
SetPatch

I took these files from my amiga os 3.9 emergency-disk. What am i missing?

Given that the destination partition is automatically mounted, you only need Assign in C, nothing else.

Startup-Sequence should look like this:

Assign SYS:   DH1:
Assign C:     SYS:C
Assign Devs:  SYS:Devs
Assign Fonts: SYS:Fonts
Assign L:     SYS:L
Assign Libs:  SYS:Libs
Assign S:     SYS:S
CD SYS:
Execute S:Startup-Sequence

Edit: actually you don't need C at all if you code Startup-Sequence like this:

DH1:C/Assign SYS: DH1:
SYS:C/Assign C:   SYS:C
Assign Devs:  SYS:Devs
Assign Fonts: SYS:Fonts
Assign L:     SYS:L
Assign Libs:  SYS:Libs
Assign S:     SYS:S
CD SYS:
Execute S:Startup-Sequence
