Installing OS/2 or Windows NT^(TM) partitions

Use Windows NT or OS/2 tools or DOS fdisk to install Windows NT or OS/2 partitions. These partitions should be installed prior to installing the SCO distribution or you will need to back up and reinstall the SCO system. Windows NT and OS/2 rewrite the disk partition table differently than do UNIX, DOS, or Windows 95 systems. This means that partition labels change. Device nodes that refer to specific partitions point to different partitions after Windows NT or OS/2 has rewritten the partition table. This occurs when Windows NT or OS/2 is installed, but not subsequently.

In addition:

• SCO systems do not include tools to exchange files from OS/2 or Windows NT partitions.

• You must use fdisk(ADM) to switch to or from OS/2 or Windows NT.

• fdisk(ADM) displays OS/2 and Windows NT partitions as OS/2.
