 [ Quoting George White to Brent Smith ] 
 BS>So I was wondering if I could Install win95 on this drive,
 BS>or will it give me problems when I am under os/2.
 GW> NO! Win 95 will _only_ install on a primary partition on the first
 GW> hard drive.
Not exactly. It installs on the first active primary partition. Which is
always C: under MSDOS's (and OS2's) drive naming scheme. The active partition
can be changed with FDISK or boot manager so win95 can be installed on
any of 4 primary partitions on the first physical drive.
Win95 can be installed on any other drive, but it's boot files (IO.SYS and
MSDOS.SYS) must be on C:
