- I thought i lot about buying stacker for dos when my HD was allways
- full but that meant that I lost some executable space. Since some programs
- need 595k of ram and stacker took some away i let it go. But know some
- compression programs are coming out ( at least in the U.S...). If i use
- a compression program under os2 do i loose executable space ?
-
- But what bugs me the must is this. If I use a compression program under
- os2 and then need to run a program in a dos only enveriment, what happens to
- the compress partitions ? (they would both share the same fat partitions ?)
-
- If you have tested one compression program under os/2 could i have your feedback
- please? And what happens to dual boot ?
