What you will have to do is partition your 32GB drive to break out additional 2GB volumes. Assign drive letters an PCDOS should see them and let you copy or move files to them. Or switch to a different version of DOS. I had FreeDOS installed in a multiboot configuration on an old notebook, with Win2K Pro, two flavors of Linux, and FreeDOS. I partitioned the drive. The Win2K install got 20GB formatted NTFS, the Linux slices got 8GB each, formatted ext4, and FreeDOS got a 2GB slice formatted FAT32. (The remainder was for a swap partition used by Linux.) It had no problem with it being FAT32, and I could have given it a larger slice, but nothing I would install or use under FreeDOS needed a larger volume. > cheers > DS ______ Dennis _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
