Re: [newbie] System Commander 2000 and partitioning
I have three partitions on my system, created with fdisk. There is a primary DOS partition (the C drive), and a secondary DOS partition, which is further divided into two logical partitions (D and E drives). I also left myself some space to install Linux, which got its own partition. This was all on a single disk drive. I'm not sure if you are using two physical drives, based on your mention of "slave" below. There is no reason why Partition Commander could not do all these things, if fdisk can do them.

In addition, I would like to do this with Windows98SE with an extra partition, Then, devote my slave for Linux only. Is this possible?

Re: [newbie] System Commander 2000 and partitioning
u.. repartitioning a drive is a logical thing... as opposed to physical. the only physical thing you're doing is remagnitizing the platters. so to answer your question you won't have to disconnect the drives. - Original Message - From: "Romanator" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, March 19, 2001 7:57 PM Subject: [newbie] System Commander 2000 and partitioning > Well, I finally purchased System Commander 2000. > > I have a couple of questions if any one knows.

[newbie] System Commander 2000 and partitioning
Well, I finally purchased System Commander 2000. I have a couple of questions if any one knows. Can I repartition the two drives while they are connected to each other. I have 10Gig. set as master and a 3.5Gig. drive as slave? Or, should I disconnect them and repartition them individually with System Commander and then reconnect them? I would like to devote an entire drive to Linux MDK7.2 and the other to Windows. Some of my apps. will only work on a Windows platform i.e. Windows 95, Windows 98SE. Any thoughts? -- Roman Registered Linux User #179293 Turbo Charged Penguin Email
