an FDISK question

[Frank]

I used the TrueImage program to copy my system drive to another drive.
At the end it made the target drive the bootable one and "unset" the
Active Partition on the source drive.

Question, if I take out the new bootable drive AND boot Win98SE from a
floppy can I run FDISK to set the active partition WITHOUT destroying
the data?

Regards,
Frank

BTW, TrueImage did an 80gig drive in less than 20 minutes.

Kinda, Fdisk would work for what you want, but you should use the
MEbootup disk as it's FDISK is more up to date.
