Re: Upgrading HD to newer version of MSDOS

Check out the Norton Utility called "Disk Doctor" (NDD.EXE).  It will
condition a hard disk to receive an upgraded version of MSDOS.  If necessary,
it will relocate a few files to make room for the system-hidden files
IBMBIO.COM and IBMDOS.COM (or whatever your manufacturer calles them).
You won't have to backup/reformat or do any of these bothersome tasks.
