Lines: 15 I have an unusual setup on my PC and don't want to take chances when I install DOS 5. I've got an 80286 machine with an RLL hard drive partitioned using Disk Manager. Drive C: is about .25 Meg (yes, as in 250K). Furthermore, the dmdrvr.bin that came with DM won't work with DOS 5. I'm using DM because D: is larger than 32 meg Should I install DOS to floppy, eliminate my hard drive partition, repartition with DOS 3.3's Fdisk (or forget about partitions despite the drive's size), reformat with 3.3 (I really wish the full MSDOS 5 was in the store), then install DOS 5?
