I haven't used Partition Magic, but I used Ranish to partition the hard disk on this machine, and it is very good. It also includes a boot loader if you need it: http://www.users.intercom.com/~ranish/part/ ... > Awhile back there was a post about a Caldera Open Dos book with a CD > ROM and I believe it included source code on the CD.

I have this book here, and DR-DOS 7.02 from the CD is running as I type, and the CD-ROM does include source code. The book is "DR-DOS Complete" from Caldera Press, ISBN: 1-889492-03-5. I got my copy from Cheapbytes. I just checked and they appear to still have it: http:/www.cheapbytes.com/ Regards -- Gregor Jones mailto:gjones AT bu DOT edu Boston MA
