Actually, PC-Ditto will not access multiple partitions (just like most
flavors of MS/PC-DOS). The reason is that since MS-DOS can't, neither will
PC-Ditto. One can tell PC-Ditto which partition will be its first and
last. I've now set it up to boot on another partition...
Now if we could only add some slots... :-)
