Lines: 14 I am using DOS 3.2 and I want to format and partition an 80 meg drive. What I need to know is how to format the drive, then how to set the partitions up so that MS-DOS knows about them. I want to have all partitions active simultaneously. Please e-mail either the name of the book to read, or actual instructions on how to do it. Could there even be a utility program to do this? I am upgrading a clone with no documentation to go on except for the drive parameters and an MS-DOS manual that tells me I can only have one partition active at a time (say what!). -- Larry Autry larry@sgistl.sgi.com or {ucbvax,sun,ames,pryamid,decwrl}!sgi!sgistl!larry
