Although the second (and later) hard disk and logical partitions may also be supported by SmartBtmgr (by using 'Swap drive ID' feature) I don't suggest doing so." I'm still looking for some way to do this..... so i'll try the other option you listed next. jim >I use: > >http://www.xosl.org/ or: >http://www.users.intercom.com/~ranish/part/ > >xosl can in installed in your 98 partition, and can restore what it changed >if you so desire to remove it. > >Doug. -- ___________________________________________________________ Jim Arnold Voice: 330.253.9524 x 9-12 Ohio.com Site Administrator Fax: 330.253.8214 http://www.ohio.com Cell: 330.730.0797 AOL IM: instantjim 12 E.
