Use the DiskManager only for the low level formatting of Your
hard disk. DON'T allow it to create the partitions. (Check if
there are really no partition table on Your disk with one of
the usual disk editors e.g. NU)
Then install OS/2 and DOS with the dual boot option. You 
should use MS-DOS 4.01 or Compaq DOS 3.31 or better. These
will allow You DOS partitions greater than 32 Meg.
I'm using at work Compaq DOS 3.31 and OS/2 1.1 with an ST 4096
and a WD 1006 combi controller. I have only one 80 Meg partition
for DOS and OS/2. ( By the way, HPFS would need it's own partition!)
For the dual boot I'm using the boot program of Kai Uwe Rommel,
which works fine.
