Can anyone out there tell me if it's possible (under Dos 3.3 or 4.01)
to format an 80Meg Hard Disk without having to partition it?
If not, then could I get away with a no more than 2 partitions or
do they all have to be 32Meg partitions and then one of whatever is
left over?
	I have a Dell 210 with a 40Meg HD and want to put in a connor
80Meg HD. Would I need to get a new controller card for the new disk?
I don't know if the existing card HD is RLL, SCSI, ESDI or whatever.
 Thanks,
	John Grogan.
