I want partition my hard disk so I can have a additional logical drive.  
Currently I have 7,892,992 bytes available on my C: drive.  I would
like to have a logical drive D: with 2-3M.

I tried to use the DOS command PART (Adding a MS-DOS hard disk partition)
(Add an extended or logical MS-DOS partition) but I get a message that
no space is available.

I'm running under MS-DOS 3.3.

I am a novice with MS-DOS so any hints/help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
