It really helped! Message-ID: <1989Aug9.020855.14852@cs.dal.ca> Date: 9 Aug 89 02:08:55 GMT Reply-To: smith@dalcsug.UUCP (Sean Smith) Distribution: na Organization: Math, Stats & CS, Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada Lines: 18 Well, I must say that I didn't expect the volume that I got. Many thanks to those who answered. Now to the summary: Most said "Get Disk Manager". So I went back to my dealer, who informed me that a copy should have been included in the deal. So I got the copy, used it to set up the drive (32/8 MB partitions) and it works great! Some suggested a DOS upgrade (to 3.3 or 4.01) but I don't really have that much money now ('specially after buying the HD!) and, anyway, Disk Manager was included. As well, I ran into some problems with 4.01-certain packages I've run (including a version of MS Windows-386) wouldn't run under it.
