1 MLPART.SYS
o (For
Multiple
DOS
Partitions)
MLPART.SYS is
an
installable device driver
that
lets your
com-
puter
access multiple, non-bootable (DOS2) partitions on a
hard
disk drive.
To
create these partitions, you use
the
MLPART.COM
command. (See "MLPART"
in
Part
2 of
this
manual.)
The purpose of MLPART.SYS is to let you
take
advantage of all
the
space on a
hard
disk
that
has
32 or more megabytes of stor-
age. The bootable
(DOS)
partition
must
begin and end
in
the
first 32 megabytes of
the
hard
disk.
Before installing the device driver, create
the
DOS2 partitions,
using
the
MLPART command.
To
install
the
MLPART.SYS device driver, include a DEVICE
command
in
your CONFIG.SYS file, using
this
format:
DEVICE
=MLPART.SYS drive specifications
where drive specifications is a
list
of
the
physical drive letters of
the
hard
disks containing DOS partitions.
For example,
if
you have only one DOS2 partition
on
Drive
C,
you use the line:
deVice=mlpart.sys
