It is my interpretation that Partition Magic will run under DOS, however, there is a problem in that you need Windows in order to prepare a "Partition Magic Rescue Disk" that will boot to DOS and run the DOS version which Windows had written to the rescue disk at the time when the rescue disk was prepared. I wonder about the legality of first installing Partition Magic on your Windows machine and then using the rescue disk to install it on your DOS machine. In this situation you would have one copy of the software running on two different machines. If you uninstall Partition Magic from your Windows machine after creating the rescue disk, then that might be be legal. Dunno.
