Hello, I just purchased a new hard drive to install into my '386. The drive is a 125 meg IDE :-). I plan to split it about 60meg DOS and 60meg Minix. On the Minix side, I will be using Minix-386. My question is this: with such a large drive, I have quite a few options in partitioning it. ON the DOS side, I will proobably go with two 30meg partitions. On the Minix side, I have been considering one large partition and a very small one for the ram image or several medium ones plus the small one. What do you experts thing are the pros and cons of the different choices. Does the minix-386 stuff need to be in its own partition? Any advice would be appreciated!!
