I just purchased DR DOS 5.0 and installed it on my hard disk.
I would like to redo my 80MB hard disk into a single partition.
I have Disk Manager 4.0 and it will only allow bootable partitions
of 32MB or less.  Is there a newer version that will let me do
an 80MB bootable partition?  What other "disk manager" type
programs are out there?  Which is best?  Thanks
