The simplest way to dual boot OS/2 or Dos is to put the DOS and OS/2
files on the hard disk with the hard disk booting OS/2. When you want
to run DOS boot from a floppy which has commands in its autoexec.bat
file to set COMSPEC and PATH to the DOS directory files on the hard
disk. An added advantage of this technique is that you can have
several customized floppies for special purposes such as booting up
with network drivers and/or cdrom support or even booting different
versions of DOS (3.3 vs 4.0), (IBM vs MS).
