Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Win98SE and Warp 4.x on the same HD?

Background: I just bought a ThinkPad T20-21U with a PIII-650, 128MB RAM, approx.
11GB HD, and Win98 2nd Edition.

Two questions:

1) What version of Partition Magic do I need to resize the hard drive, given that
Win98SE is on a FAT32 drive? (I have PM version 3.05, but I thought FAT32 underwent
some minor changes between Win95 OSR2 and Win98 SE, and at the time Partition
Magic 3 came out, that was prior to Win 98).

2) I wanted to put MCP on this machine after shrinking the Win98SE partition, but I see a
bit of a problem: According to Daniela's DANIDASD, it is not compatible with LVM
(which of course is part of MCP/eCS/WSeB).

So as I see it, I have 3 options:

1) Convert the Win98 partition to FAT16 and then install MCP in the free-space.

2) Leave the Win98 partition as FAT32 and revert back to plain Warp 4 with fixpacks (if I
want to access the Win98 partition from Warp).

3) Or make both the Win98 & Warp partitions as primaries (which means I can't access
Win98 files from Warp).

Thanks.
