1) Using a boot manager program:

System Commander (5)

System Controller (1)

Boot Master (1)

OS2 (1)

Linux (1)

Patition Magic (1)

Window NT (1)

2) Using Solaris X86 boot manager (5)

(install win95 then Solaris X86)

I have tested the second solution, however it did not work for me.

Solaris X86 2.4 works with DOS 6.20, not Win95.

1) IDE disk 1.2GB -> (DOS) 80MB, (Solaris) 400MB, (DOS)700MB

2) SCSI disk 1.6GB -> (DOS) 400MB, (Solaris) 1.2GB

using Solaris fdisk during installation, DOS FDISK does not

recognize over 505MB for the IDE disk. Boot partitions are the

first two in the IDE disk, which are both < 1024 cyls, otherwise

a message "Boot Records Can not Found" appear and it fails to

boot for either win95 or Solaris & DOS 6.2. Whatever I tryed,

once installed win95, it always boot win95!!!
