Hello,

You did not mention if you wanted to boot fully into a DOS shell....I
didn't yet read anyone suggesting how to do this.  If you would like to
boot to DOS as the default you could edit your msdos.sys file and change
the second line BOOT GUI=1 to BOOT GUI=0  You will then go straight to DOS
rather then windows.
Hope this is of some assistance.
