I have a Z-248/12 with a 40MB drive running Zenith DOS 3.21, and a more recent
Supersport 286 Laptop (20MB) running Zenith DOS 3.3+.  Now that my 40MB drive
is approaching capacity (32MB--I have only a single partition), I want to
run DOS 3.3+ on it to make use of all 40MB.  Can anyone tell me just how to
set the whole thing up?  Will I have to backup all my directories and reformat
the 40MB drive?  And will DOS 3.3 AUTOMATICALLY take advantage of all 40MB, or
do I have to fiddle around with my DOS manual for hours?  I'm hoping for an
easy solution from one of you netters with more experience.  Thanks.
