Solve : Changing to the next device in the boot sequence via DOS?

Answer»

Once booted into DOS from a USB Flash disk, is it possible to exit DOS and have the loader switch control to the NEXT device in the boot sequence (from USB to CD-ROM or Hard disk)? Thanks.No.
The boot order is determined by the BIOS...WAY before DOS loads...Just to clarify, I don't mean DOS finding the boot order in BIOS, I just mean DOS BOOTING to another device. So I couldn't have DOS CHECK for an MBR on the CD drive (after loading drivers for it), then on the hard disk, and booting into one of those devices if an MBR is found?It is the BIOS that boots a device, so no, there's no way to get DOS to do what you want.
