`Getting Started
`
`Getting Started
`
`PowerQuest’s BootMagic is a powerful disk-management tool that helps you run
`multiple operating systems on a single PC. Each time you start or restart your computer,
`BootMagic presents a list of operating systems (OSs) you can boot from. The
`configuration program lets you quickly select the OSs you want to appear in the
`BootMagic Menu and lets you set various boot-time options such as a default OS and a
`startup delay.
`
`With BootMagic, you can easily switch between OSs, using whichever OS best suits
`your immediate needs. You can even try out a new OS risk-free, knowing that your old
`OS is there, readily accessible when you need it.

`
`
`
`Getting Started
`
`Installing BootMagic
`
`You can install BootMagic from Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 3.51 or 4.0,
`and DOS 5.0 or later. For Windows 3.x systems, exit Windows and use the DOS
`installation.
`
`IMPORTANT! BootMagic must be installed to a FAT or FAT32 primary partition on
`the first hard disk.
`
`To install BootMagic, follow these steps:
`
`1. Insert the PartitionMagic or BootMagic CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive.
`
`In Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0, the setup program automatically
`starts when you insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
`
`2. If you are installing from the PartitionMagic CD, select Install from the
`PartitionMagic setup screen and mark the BootMagic check box to launch the
`BootMagic install program.
`
`Or
`
`If you are installing from the BootMagic stand-alone CD, the BootMagic install
`program runs automatically.
`
`Or
`
`If you are using DOS, type drive:\ENGLISH\BTMAGIC\DOS\INSTALL.EXE
`(where drive is the drive letter of your CD-ROM drive).
`
`3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install BootMagic.
`
`4
`
`EXHIBIT 2001
`
`
`
`Getting Started
`
`After installation, BootMagic sorts through your system’s hard disks, looking at the
`partition tables and gathering information about each currently-installed operating
`system. BootMagic then automatically runs the configuration program, adding every
`detected OS to the BootMagic Menu.
`
`At this point, it may be necessary for you to edit the items that appear in the menu list.
`While BootMagic reliably detects most OSs, it may also detect some non-OS partitions.
`For example, if you have a primary NTFS data partition (i.e. a partition which contains
`only data, no OS) on the first disk, BootMagic may detect it as Windows NT. Likewise,
`an HPFS data partition may be detected as OS/2 and a primary FAT16 or FAT32 data
`partition may be detected as MS-DOS or Windows 95/98. Because data partitions
`cannot be booted, you should remove them from the menu list. You can also choose to
`add or remove other OS selections, modify OS names and icons for easier identification,
`add passwords, set a new startup delay, or select a different default OS.
`
`NOTE: For information on detecting non-OS partitions in the menu list, see “Finding
`the Right Operating System” in BootMagic’s online Help. For more
`information on using the configuration program, see “Configuring
`BootMagic” on page 7 in this guide or refer to online Help.
`
`After you make any necessary changes, click Save/Exit. The next time you reboot your
`computer the BootMagic Menu appears. To start an OS, simply select the desired menu
`item from the BootMagic Menu.
`

`
`
`
`Getting Started
`
`Creating a BootMagic Rescue Diskette
`
`During installation, you have the option to create a BootMagic rescue diskette. (DOS
`users should run drive:\BTMAGIC.PQ\MKRESCUE.BAT after the BootMagic DOS
`install to create the rescue diskettes.) This diskette is vital if your system’s master boot
`record (MBR) is ever damaged or overwritten. It can also be helpful if you inadvertently
`disable BootMagic and cannot access the configuration program to re-enable it.
`
`WARNING! Technical support may not be able to assist you if you have not created a
`rescue diskette.
`
`To launch BootMagic’s configuration program from the rescue diskette, boot from the
`rescue diskette and follow the on-screen instructions.
`
`Once in the configuration program, you can make any needed modifications or
`additions. When you click Save/Exit to exit the configuration program, BootMagic re-
`saves all the necessary files and rewrites the MBR, thereby restoring the program to
`normal.
`
`Getting Help
`
`If you need more information than this Quick Start Guide provides, BootMagic’s online
`Help is your best solution.

`
`Configuring BootMagic
`
`BootMagic’s configuration program consists of two versions, one for DOS and one for
`Windows 95/98 and Windows NT. Both versions have similar interfaces and offer the
`same functionality.
`
`BootMagic’s configuration program may be manually launched by any of the following:
`
`• In Windows select Start (cid:228)
`Configuration.
`
` Programs (cid:228)
`
` PowerQuest BootMagic (cid:228)
`
` BootMagic
`
`• In DOS run drive:\BTMAGIC.PQ\CONFIG.BAT.
`
`• Select Tools (cid:228)
`
` BootMagic Configuration from the PartitionMagic menu.
`
`When you run the configuration program, the BootMagic Configuration window
`appears. From this window, you can set a password for the configuration program, the
`BootMagic Menu or specific menu items; add or remove an OS to the BootMagic
`Menu; modify an OS’s BootMagic properties; set your default OS; set the startup delay;
`or disable BootMagic. Each of these options are briefly covered in this Quick Start
`Guide. For further information about configuring BootMagic or for details for each step
`outlined below, please refer to BootMagic’s online Help.

`
`Setting BootMagic Passwords
`
`BootMagic now allows users to password protect the BootMagic configuration program,
`the BootMagic Menu, or even specific menu items.
`
`To set a password for the configuration program or the BootMagic Menu, follow these
`steps:
`
`1. In the BootMagic Configuration window, click the Options menu.
`
`2. Select Set Configuration Password to password protect the configuration program
`or Set Boot-time Password to password protect the BootMagic Menu.
`
`3. Enter the current password in the Old password text box.
`
`NOTE: The Current Password text box will be blank and disabled when there is
`no prior password.
`
`4. Enter the new password in the New password text box.
`
`5. Retype the new password in the Confirm new password text box.
`
`6. Click OK.
`
`To clear a password, enter the old password and leave the new password fields blank.
`
`To set a password for specific BootMagic Menu items, you must modify the menu
`item’s properties. For more information, see “Modifying a Menu Item’s Properties” on
`page 10 or refer to BootMagic’s online Help.

`
`
`
`Configuring BootMagic
`
`Adding an Operating System to the BootMagic Menu
`
`1. In the BootMagic Configuration window, click Add.
`
`2. (optional) If you wish to view all your system’s partitions, including those that
`BootMagic does not recognize as containing an OS, mark the Advanced check box.
`
`3. Select the OS you wish to add to the BootMagic Menu.
`
`NOTE: BootMagic may sometimes detect an OS that doesn’t exist or may detect
`the wrong name for an existing OS. For help on finding the operating
`system and partition you want, see “Finding the Right Operating System”
`in BootMagic’s online Help.
`
`WARNING! Do not add non-OS partitions to the BootMagic Menu. You cannot
`boot your computer from a partition without an OS. If you add a
`partition that doesn’t have an OS and try to boot, you will be left with
`a black screen.
`
`In this event, soft boot your computer (press Ctrl-Alt-Delete), boot
`DOS or Windows from the BootMagic Menu, run the BootMagic
`configuration program, and remove the non-OS menu item from the
`BootMagic menu.
`
`4. Click OK.
`
`The BootMagic Menu Item Properties dialog appears.
`

`
`5. Define the menu properties as desired, and then click OK.
`
`NOTE: For more information on defining runtime menu properties, see
`“BootMagic Menu Item Properties” in BootMagic’s online Help.
`
`Removing an Item from the BootMagic Menu
`
`1. In the BootMagic Configuration window, select the item you wish to delete from
`the BootMagic Runtime Menu list.
`
`2. Click Delete.
`
`NOTE: Deleting an OS from the BootMagic Menu does not remove the OS from
`your system. The OS remains in its partition and can be added again to the
`menu if desired.
`
`Modifying a Menu Item’s Properties
`
`1. In the BootMagic Configuration window, select the item you wish to modify.
`
`2. Click Properties.
`
`3. Modify the properties as desired, then click OK.
`
`For a description of each property, see “BootMagic Menu Item Properties” in
`BootMagic’s online help.
`

`
`EXHIBIT 2001
`
`
`
`Configuring BootMagic
`
`Setting a Default Operating System
`
`BootMagic automatically selects the OS on the home partition (i.e. the partition on
`which BootMagic is installed) as the system default. This is the OS that BootMagic
`automatically boots if another OS is not chosen before the startup delay expires, or if the
`startup delay is set to None.
`
`NOTE: For more information on the startup delay, see the next section, “Setting the
`Startup Delay.”
`
`If you wish to select another OS as the default, follow these steps:
`
`1. In the BootMagic Configuration window, select the OS you wish to set as the
`system default.
`
`2. Click Set as Default.
`
`Setting the Startup Delay
`
`By default, BootMagic uses a Timed startup delay set to 30 seconds. You may change
`this setting with the following options:
`
`• Select None to eliminate any time delay. BootMagic automatically boots the default
`OS at startup without displaying the BootMagic Menu.
`
`• Select Indefinite to specify an unlimited time delay. BootMagic displays the runtime
`menu until you choose the OS you wish to boot.
`
`• Select Timed to designate a time delay from 1 to 99 seconds. BootMagic waits the
`specified amount of time for an OS to be chosen before booting the default OS.
`
`11
`
`EXHIBIT 2001
`
`
`
`Configuring BootMagic
`
`If you set the startup delay to either None or Timed, you must also ensure that a valid
`OS item is selected as the system default. Without a default OS, BootMagic cannot boot
`your system.
`
`NOTE: If you set the startup delay to None and select a default OS that cannot run the
`BootMagic configuration program, you will be unable to modify the
`configuration settings and boot other OSs. If this happens, boot your computer
`while holding down the left Shift key. This overrides the timer settings and
`opens the BootMagic Menu without a timer (as the Indefinite option) for that
`one boot.
`
`You can then select DOS or Windows from the BootMagic Menu, run the
`BootMagic configuration program, and change either the default OS or the
`startup delay.
`
`Disabling BootMagic
`
`You may encounter situations in which you want to disable BootMagic. For example, if
`you are diagnosing an OS startup problem and need to reboot your system multiple
`times, you may wish to bypass loading BootMagic every time. Disabling BootMagic
`replaces the BootMagic master boot record (MBR) with a copy of your original MBR.
`When you reboot your computer, BootMagic no longer loads and the default OS is
`automatically booted.
`
`NOTE: Disabling BootMagic does not destroy any of your configuration settings. All
`of the current settings are saved until BootMagic is re-enabled.
`
`12
`
`EXHIBIT 2001
`
`
`
`Configuring BootMagic
`
`To disable BootMagic, follow these steps:
`
`1. Unmark the BootMagic Enabled check box in the BootMagic Configuration
`window.
`
`The configuration options become unavailable and BootMagic remains disabled
`until the box is re-checked.
`
`2. Click Save/Exit to save your changes and exit the configuration program.
`
`BootMagic remains disabled until you choose to re-enable it. To re-enable BootMagic,
`run the configuration program from either your hard drive or the BootMagic rescue
`diskette. Mark the BootMagic enabled check box in the BootMagic configuration
`window. When BootMagic is re-enabled, it saves a copy of the current MBR and then
`reinstalls the BootMagic MBR. Upon reboot, BootMagic loads normally and all the
`previous configuration settings are restored.
`
`NOTE: For more information on creating a BootMagic rescue diskette, see “Creating a
`BootMagic Rescue Diskette” on page 6.
`
`13
`
`EXHIBIT 2001
`
`
`
`Using the BootMagic Menu
`
`Using the BootMagic Menu
`
`Once installed, the BootMagic Menu appears each time you start your computer. The
`BootMagic Menu displays all the OSs configured for booting. Each OS is identified by
`its user-assigned name and icon. Although BootMagic automatically highlights the
`default OS, you can choose any of the listed OSs. Simply click on the OS you want to
`boot. You may also use your arrow keys to select an OS and then press <Enter>.
`
`If the OS you want is not listed, you can run the BootMagic configuration program and
`add it to the menu. For more information on adding an OS to the menu list, see “Adding
`an Operating System to the BootMagic Menu” on page 9.
`
`Other BootMagic Options
`
`BootMagic facilitates a host of OS-related tasks. For example, BootMagic makes
`installing multiple OSs on your system easy. For information on installing to primary or
`logical partitions, see “Using BootMagic to Install a New Operation System” in
`BootMagic’s online Help. You may also want to refer to the help topic on OS-specific
`installation issues.
`
`BootMagic also enables you to boot operating systems that aren’t on the first hard disk.
`For specific instructions on second drive booting and beyond, see help topics “Booting
`Operating Systems from a Second Drive” and “Third Drive Booting and Beyond.”
`
`Other new BootMagic features include Advanced Partition Hiding (i.e. hiding all
`primary partitions on all disks except the primary partition being booted) and an option
`to change the BootMagic background screen to a customized, Windows' format bitmap.
