With three OSs installed on my machine, I find it handy to boot to a DOS
floppy for partition work. (Each of the OSs was installed after another
one was already using all available space).

I *COULD* use PQMagic while booted to OS/2, say, but I don't trust
partition manipulation while I'm booted to the HDD.
