Subject  :  Cloning a one disk one drive system
Size(KB) :  0


Some stand alone PC users won't take on the task of adding a
second hard disk (even on USB) but would settle for some
backup capability using just an extra drive. If they are
comfortable with the FDISK and FORMAT procedures in Kan's
TB#10 there is a free drive re-sizer called PRESIZER that fits
onto the 95 or ME start-up diskette (and 98 without DRVSPACE).
Presizer can shrink C without data loss and thus free up the
space to create a D drive with FDISK + FORMAT. After that
XXCOPY's /BACKUP or /CLONE can be used for holistic or
selective backup in the usual way. The download is available
from www.zeleps.com but users who already "know" the
instructions would be wise to avoid skipping them this time!
