Purpose: when it is started (from Win95/98/ME), (correctly) unloads Windows
and loads KolibriOS instead.
Installation is not required.
Start:
9x2klbr [[drive:]\[path\][image_name]]
Image file must be situated on hard disk.
Default values: drive C:, root folder, image kolibri.img.
Path and image name must contain only characters from first half of
ASCII-table. In particular, there must be no russian letters.
FAT: Only short names of folders and file are accepted, i.e. progra~1 instead
of Program Files; for names such as kolibri and menuet.075 (no more than
8 characters in name, no more than 3 characters in extension, no special
characters) this is satisfied automatically, in general case short name can be
found out, for example, in Explorer dialog "Properties" (in column
"MS-DOS name").
If this requirements are not satisfied, loader will not format drive :-)
but simply says 'not found'.
Examples:
9x2klbr d:\download\kolibri\kolibri1.img
9x2klbr c:\progra~1\kolibri\
9x2klbr \progra~1\kolibri\
(will load from kolibri.img)
9x2klbr e:\
(equivalent to 9x2klbr e:\kolibri.img)
9x2klbr
(without parameters; equivalent to 9x2klbr c:\kolibri.img)
