Hello Ron!
 > I am obviously missing something here.
Yes, you are. :-)
Some guy asked here how to boot OS2 out from the MS-PC Dos 6.x menuitem. As 
he is a newbie, such errors can be forgiven to him. What to my opinion is not 
forgivible, is trying to cover such obscure procedures.

You are absolutely right about that. And that's the advise I had given to 
him. And the thread about this began on that advise of me.
 > Why would anyone want to use dual boot anyway?
Beats me too.
