I must admit defeat. I am trying to partition my hard disk into 3 separate
partitions. I want one FAT partition and 2 HPFS partitions. On one HPFS
partition, I would like to install WARP. I would like the FAT partition to
be the first on the disk, and to install DOS on that. Rather than use the
Boot Manager, I would prefer to use Dual Boot. This seems to be entirely
impossible, by all methods of trickery that i can come up with.
My Priorities are:
#1: OS/2 Warp with Windows support on my computer
#2: Said support on the same partition
#3: Said partition to be formated with HPFS
#4: A FAT partition on the hard disk
#5: Said FAT partition to be the first primary partition on the disk
#6: Support for DUAL BOOT
#7: No BOOT MANAGER??
Any advise, help, or consolation would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks alot!!!
