Edna:
Your best bet is Partition Magic -- I think I paid about $50 for it at
Staples or Office Depot. It can partition your drive any number of ways,
and it will also take care of formatting each partition with whatever
file system you require from plain old DOS FAT through Windows NT, OS/2
and on to Linux. My version included Boot Manager, which is one way to
manage systems with more than one operating system installed. It can
even be run from a floppy, so that you can use it to set up a brand new
or newly-zeroed drive.
