I've never had a large hard drive so I've never experimented with partitioning,
other than to make one large DOS partition. My question is, how do you create
a non-DOS partition for operating systems of files that require it, or is that
simply considered to be the part that is not formatted as a DOS partition? Dos
a non-DOS partition have to be "created" as a DOS partition has to be
specifically "created?" If so, what utilities do this?
At what point is a DOS partition considered to be actually bootable? Is it
when the system files (Command, Drvspace, Io.sys, Msdos.sys) files are copied
onto the active partition?
Thanks!
