This sounds like a lot of extra trouble to me. I have one customer who
wanted the same thing. Just edit c:\msdos.sys in a text editor (it is
read-only so you have to temporarily change the attributes) so that the
line: BootGUI=1 is changed to BootGUI=0. The machine then boots to the dos
prompt. To run Windows, just type in WIN, just like the 3.1 days.
