c: FAT 95 AND with an NT maintenance minimal install; 1 gig; I do not quite follow you here Dave. What is AND with an NT maintenance install? Do you have Win95 and NT installed in a FAT 16 primary partition on your first harddrive? Which one boots...do you use a boot manager to select between Win95 and the NT minimal install?? Is this the NT OS loader option?? How do you boot the D main NT install in the extended partition?? also accessed with the NT OS loader?? no primary, only an extended partition, 3 FAT logical partitions (e,f,g)* Is this a typo? With c,d,and e on drive 1 drive 2 would be f,g,and h? Zeuspaul

Dave my partition strategy, again FWIW: Very useful indeed..... and interesting in comparison to zp's one large partition. As an organizational issue I am gravitating toward having Os/utilities and apps/data on separate partitions as you have it. I would attempt such partitioning later as per Spots prudent thinking and maybe a little more back and forth here as to the merits of each. The one large partition on each drive is what I have now, its what Jon setup altough I asked for other volumes to be created I'm glad he left it simple as he did so I have more time to inform myself as to which partitioning suits me best.
