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

Expand Post »

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
