Hi !
I'm looking for a Dos app that could format a HD partition in a Linux
format (ext2, ext3, reiserfs)...
Does such a monster exist ?
TIA

Cordialement,

I think what you might need is a partition manager that can set up a
partition for linux and whatever else you might want to install?

If so, Ranish Partition Manager:

XOSL Boot Manager comes with Ranish, but it's an old version. Get the
newer version at:

http://www.xosl.org/


Once you partition and get your boot manager going linux performs the
formatting for you.

Or, did I misread the intent?

No, I already have a partition manager.
I really want a Dos formatter (that could fit on a Dos formatted floppy
disk) that will be able to format my HD in the format I specified with
my partition manager (Fat 16&32 - Linux ext2 ext3 reiserfs & swap)
