+Edpart.exe is a disk partition editor capable of managing up to four
+partitions on PC/XT and AT hard disks.  It specifically says "no
+copyright", so I figured someone else might like to use it rather than
+doing fdisk/diskfix pairs to create partitions.
+
+There's no instruction file and no real on-line help, so here's a
+summary:
+
+EDPART.EXE maintains up to four hard disk partitions on either of two
+hard drives.  If it sees more than one hard drive, it will ask which
+one to edit.
+
+The commands are:
+
+CREATE	Create hard disk partitions
+DELETE	Delete hard disk partitions
+STATUS	Bootable partitions may have the following status:
+	ACTIVE		This partition is the boot partition
+	READ/WRITE	R/W, not the boot partition
+	Non-bootable partitions (``extensions'') may be any of:
+	READ/WRITE
+	READ-ONLY
+	INACCESSIBLE
+TYPE	There are four types; for Minix purposes, either "extension"
+	type will do to my knowledge.
+	DOS(4) Bootable		For DOS 3.x
+	DOS(4) Extension
+	DOS(1) Bootable		For DOS 2.x
+	DOS(1) Extension
+	The "Bootable" partitions are recognized by MS-DOS directly,
+	so I don't advise using either of them for Minix.
