can anyone give me info as to how xenix deals with hard disks that are larger than 32M -- i'm wondering whether xenix can read and write a dos partition -- or more importantly: multiple dos partitions... i will be getting a 10 Mhz 286 and a 90M hard disk... my problem is that i want to be able to run DOS, Concurrent DOS, and XENIX -- and have all 3 access the entire disc. CDOS can do this with no problem... DOS i don't really care about all that much, but i would like XENIX to be able to get at all 3 dos partitions (30M each)... thanks for any help or abuse you can give me!!!! :)
