Ontrack Disk Manager 9.57 Boot I


Somewhat similar to FDISK in functionality, this is a bootable disk for setting up hard disks before installing the operating system. Within the application, there's also the ability to run diagnostics on the drive, install a Windows 3.1 32-bit disk access driver, and restore the drive's MBR for example should it become corrupt/infected with a virus.




Ontrack Disk Manager 9.57 Boot I



I'm playing around with Ontrack Disk Manager 9.57 to get a 32G CF card working with my 386 build. I have DOS 6.22 so I had it configured 4 partitions of 2G each. It's working great except that I notice it reduces DOS memory by around 15k. Is this typical? Also the manual says it can relocate much of itself to UMBs with the /L=2 parameter. Has anyone ever tried this with success? It doesn't seem to do anything with my build. I do have EMM386 loaded and can load mouse or cd-rom drivers into UMBs with no issue. This is not about loading the ONTRACKD.SYS driver, but the disk overlay itself, which is loaded by MBR and before DOS I assume. Technically I would be very impressed if this is actually feasible at all. ?


The above code takes the logical disk geometry as detected or configured in the BIOS and multiplies the coordinates together to obtain a count of sectors times 4. That value is then divided by 7812 (almost exactly the number of sectors in one SI megabyte) to obtain the number of megabytes. The division instruction at E000:8B15 takes the dividend from the 32-bit register pair DX:AX (where the multiplication instruction put it) and returns the quotient in the 16-bit register AX. If the quotient happens not to fit within 16 bits, the divide instruction triggers a #DE (divide error) exception, more commonly known for being triggered when attempting to divide by zero. Since the BIOS had not installed a meaningful divide error handler by that moment, the boot process hangs.


Finally, if you've got a suitable Windows (eg. one of the Windows XP testing images that used to be offered on modern.ie before Microsoft EOLed earlier versions of Internet Explorer), you could mount a floppy drive or disk image as A: in a PC emulator/virtual machine manager and create an install disk that way... assuming that Wine doesn't offer a translation of the relevant APIs and none of the relevant disk image generators are DOS EXEs that'll work in something like DOSBox-X.


Windows 95 will support Disk Manager 6.x and above 'out of the box', as will new versions of OS/2 Warp, Windows NT 3.5.1 and Linux 1.3.x. IBM and Microsoft have created fixes that allow older versions of OS/2, Warp and Windows NT to work with Disk Manager.o Fourth, corruption of the DDO sector will result in a DDO Integrity Error. While it is fairly easy to re-write the DDO sector (use the dmcfig.exe utility on your DM diskette), this is is a sign of a bigger problem (eg. virus) rather than a problem in itself---contact Ontrack tech support (tech@ontrack.com) for assistance.


When I use the MS-DOS 6.22 boot disk and create the primary DOS partition The PC asks me to reboot. After the reboot he PC can see drive C: but when I try to format the drive I get the error "Error writing FAT. Format terminated".


I am able to get a 128GB SD card running using Ontrack Disk Manager 9.57 but it makes my Gotek no able to boot when using spacebar. just says everything is not a system disk. Just stating this because I think it has to be something with the 2gb SD setting the bios is auto detecting.


  • Use Qemu manager, which behaves like most other GUI VM's: ...In other words Virtual Machines, in this order:Qemu

  • VMware

  • Virtual PC

  • VirtualBox

can be at the most a pre-test, not exhaustive, the only good thing is that if some of these floppy images do work in Qemu (or in VMware) are VERY likely (like 99%) to boot properly on real hardware, but you will NEVER know.


...and unsurprisingly the BIOS just isn't happy that my hard disk is not a true 'type 32'. I boot to a floppy disk and run FDISK. No luck... FDISK doesn't detect a valid hard disk at all - it just reports 'No fixed disks found'.


Now I hear you saying "Why do this when upon reboot you're back to square one? The BIOS still holds zero values for your hard disk so it will never self-boot!". Well, my new plan is to get OnTrack Disk Manager to detect a hard disk. ODM is a great tool which can easily setup your hard disk partitions and format them without any other setup involved.


I need to boot from a floppy disk that also installs the OnTrack Dynamic Drive Overlay first. This will allow Ontrack to work if the BIOS call detects a hard disk. I use this floppy disk image.
