No problem. What he's referring to is a standalone boot disk that you
can create (you'd have to have a Win95 system somewhere that you can use
to make it). Once you have that, you just boot off of it and
PartitionMagic does its, well, magic. (It brings up a sort of
stripped-down Win95, apparently). At least if it has the drivers for
your disk devices. I guess you might have problems if the drives hung
off a SCSI controller or something.
