I'm not sure if that's the right solution either. I think we need a way to nail devices down when partitioning disks. We could just assign each partition a 1-byte ordering number. Partitions with a '0' would get detected first, '1' second, etc... Partitions with the same number would be detected on a device-order basis, the way things work now. Does anyone know how NT does this? I guess I could play around with it and see what Norton Disk Doctor turns up. Thanks, Jeff
