DOS C++, pulling boot order and hard drive parameters,

Aug 23rd, 2003

Hi all,

I'm trying to locate information that would assist me in obtaining the BIOS boot order and hard drive parameters in DOS.

The hard drive information I think I can extract from the FreeFdisk source code with a little more time, but the BIOS boot order has me stumped. I'm not looking for any code here, just a direction to go for research (learn more that way).

Thank you in advance,

Mike
