Sorry, but I am not sure what you are asking? What is savepart? what is URL of savepart site? What is the name of the iso or exe?

Does this help? http://sourceforge.n...8/topic/3922850

title savepart.iso

# map the iso file as a virtual cd

map /savepart.iso (0xff)

# hook the int 13 interrupt so the BIOS sees it as a CD

map --hook

# set the root path to the new virtual CD

root (0xff)

# boot from the CD

chainloader (0xff)



title spartbdk.img

# map the 1.44MB floppy image as fd0

map /spartbdk.img (fd0)

map --hook

root (fd0)

# load the freedos kernel.sys as the boot file

chainloader /kernel.sys



Use RMPrepUSB FAT32 and Install grub4dos to prepare the stick.

Hi!

I managed to do otherwise.

title Savepart
find --set-root --ignore-floppies /dos/so/savepart/savepart.img
map --mem /dos/so/savepart/savepart.img (fd0)
map --hook
chainloader (fd0)+1
rootnoverify (fd0)


This is just incase the image in the directory you want and use the command to open a floppy disk. As the site savepart have the option to download the DOS is that makes a floppy diskette and just incase this is working. If you want to make a new floppy is using the EXE file to download that also.
But tanks for the help.
