I' m writing a MBR program which load the boot sector,
but I would like to put the partition table to an another sector.
If I move the partition table and lauch the boot sector program,
the computer sends an error "insert a system disk with the command.com
FILE".
In fact, the computer can't access to the hard disk.
Do you have a solution ?
