You could the same thing without changing your AUTOEXEC.BAT. With the solution
presented above you will execute the same second version of AUTOEXEC.BAT each
time you reboot your machine (perhaps that's really what you want, but my
imagination doesn't go that far. If so, just disregard this article).

My solution: In the startup file you include the following:

if exist  goto second

echo gaga > 
:second


That's it. If you want to toggle between the two boot modes just add a line
like:

del 


		I hope this will help anybody :-)
