While Programming I have sometimes many trouble and I had lost files. Curently I have following Installation on my Workstation PPro200 2x512MB of Ram and a IBM DAQA 33240 hda1 c Dos6.22/WfW 3.11 250 MB hda2 d Dr-Dos703/DJGPP 250 MB hda3 Linux Haupt-Partition 1500 MB hda4 Linux SWAP 100 MB hda5 Linux USER 995 MB Now I have some questions for my NEW DJGPP-Station: I like to use a Conner CFP 540 A with following partitions c: DR-Dos 7.03 + DJGPP (plain Dos and C) 250 MB d: TEMP 100 MB e: USER (All the compiled Stuff and Docs) 170 MB Is this OK ??? I have this question, because on my Main-Workstation I have lost files while SCANDISK and DEFRAG. Is there a director which have many trouble like the TEMP, which I put an a seperatly Partition ??? Are 100 MB for TEMP enough ??? I think, I have lost files, because there ist too much trouble on my Drive. ...and I must reboot my machine 10 time a day (Dos/Win/Lin) Are there are some other Directorys where files will be changed, created, deleted, ... ??? Thanks in advance Michelle
