It's EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only for use as a last
resort!!!!!! (I spent three days - no sleep - rescuing one single 200Mb
partition from my 1.6Gb drive because of Ontrack. Then I got rid of it by
booting around it and zeroing its partition, then installing DOS. First thing
I tried with Linux after installing it on that machine? head /dev/hda. Guess
what I see? ONTRACK DYNAMIC DRIVE OVERLAY Press spacebar to boot from floppy
diskette...$DDO ERROR - SYSTEM HALTED$Copyright Ontrack -
ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Sorry, I just don't like that software much.
