Why don't you try DEFRAG?

I installed OpenDOS on my old 386 (I also have a 286 and the 486dx2 66
which I use mostly) and I then ported over DEFRAG from my DOS 7 to the
OpenDOS directory and DEFRAG work just fine.  By the way I have tested
OpenDOS extensively and it works just great.  But I am a little scared to
put in in my 486.

Anyway, DEFRAG works good.  I threw out my Norton Utilities long ago.
