My problem with creating a permanent swapfile is as follows:

   I have a 42Mb hard drive, divided into 2 partitions, a 2Mb C:
   and a 40Mb D: drive.  DOS is on C, everything else is on D.
   When I run swapfile (in real mode) it comes up and says that
   drive C doesn't have sufficient room (which is correct).  My
   only choice is on OK button.  When I click it, swapfile terminates,
   never givig me a chance to look at D.  I am running DOS 3.3
   and Seagate drive manager lets me use > 32Mb partitions.

HELP!!!!HELP!!!!HELP!!!!HELP!!!!HELP!!!!HELP!!!!HELP!!!!HELP!!!!HELP!!!!
