I let the original post get away from me so I don't know who originated the question. It went something like "Am upgrading from 3.2 to 4.1 in order to get access to an additional 8M on my hard disk" then goes on to talk about creating an extended DOS partition under 4.1. Something doesn't quite click with this story. 3.2 is fully capable of creating and using additional logical drives in an extended partition, isn't it? If that is true, and I properly understood the authors requirements, then he probably doesn't need to change to 4.1 to accomplish his objective. -- ======================================================== Ken Abrams uunet!pallas!kabra437 Illinois Bell kabra437@athenanet.com Springfield (voice) 217-753-7965
