- RWBC:>Hey,
- RWBC:> Can anyone tell me just how safe it is to use mtools on my 130 meg
- RWBC:>dos partition? I don't want to have to go the expensense of messing it
- RWBC:>up. I have been hesitant in the past, so I just use a floppy. It would
- RWBC:>make things much easier if there is no real chance of damage being done.

- RWBC:>Thanks,

- Well I have been using MTOOLS on my SEVERELY hacked 0.97pl1.5 system.
- On this system I have installed the extended file system, the dos file system
- extension for mounting dos partitions and I have yet to experience ANY
- problems with any of the packages so far. Ive been using MTOOLS for about
- 3 weeks daily without any problems. Works great. Fast too!
