Re: Removing OS2 from my TP750



"...Well, I want to get rid of the OS2 partition of my harddisk.
What is the best way to do this?..."

~~~~~~~~~~

boot to dos.  run fdisk.  remove the os2 partition, then recreate it as an 
extended dos partition.  you can't increase the size of a partition, except by 
removing it and recreating it, so you will be left with two dos partitions, c: 
and d:.  your other option is to back up the dos partition, boot to a floppy, 
run fdisk & wipe out both partitions, then recreate one large c:.  the boot 
manager may be taking up a 1MB partition of its own, in which case, you can 
wipe it out, too, if you choose the second option.
