Is it possible to boot Xenix or Microport's unix from a second hard disk?  I
have two hard disks.  I am considering using one for DOS and the other for
xenix/unix.  Since (to the best of my knowledge) DOS must boot from drive C:,
this implies that Xenix needs to boot from drive D:.  Is there a way of doing
this by running a boot program under DOS, or booting the computer from a
floppy disk (which then boots xenix/unix from D:)?
