EZ-Drive is easy and safe to use. You can choose a fully-auto-
matic installation, which puts a single partition on the drive, or you

If you already have a drive installed, EZ-Drive cannot harm your
data unless you instruct it to override that drive’s partition and
format. EZ-Drive automatically arranges the drive-type position
in System Setup to reflect how you have physically configured
the drives.
Note. EZ-Drive is designed for DOS installations. To use EZ-
Drive, you must have:
•
Microsoft MS-DOS Version 3.0 or later
•
IBM PC-DOS Version 3.1 or later
•
Digital Research DR-DOS Version 6.0 or later

DOS when other operating systems are loaded on the

before loading the other operating system. (See the Infor-
mation Help option in the software for more information on
installing other operating systems.)
