Just one partition. It's on a Pentium 90 with a 500M drive. I decided
to take the big step up from my 20Mhz 286! Turned out to be a waste of
time. My eprom programmer won't run under dosemu (starts up then tries
to grab an interrupt vector, dosemu shuts down). So it's back to my
trusty old NEC.

Thanks to everyone for the help.
