Hi Ray
I am sorry I have overseen your very interesting hint for ZIPing
the OS/2 partition:

> I have a zip of the OS/2 partition. It is less than 200M.
> I just boot to floppy and run a CMD file that formats the
partition
> and unzips the backup, and all is back where it was.

You are correct: This is an efficient and interesting solution !
It does not waste any storage and, very important with a
collapsing
HDD, there is no risk to loose it ;-))

My present solution is a backup to a small external SCSI-HDD.
After backup the external unit is not disturbing or interfearing
the
present system environment !
I would prefer your solution !!

Once again I have learnt an interesting solution: Thank you !

Regards, svobi
