Mike,

Just a note to elaborate on some of the responses you've already received.
If you're discussing an OS/400 partition, the hardware requirements really
get in the way of just "trying out" the partition concept on a test box.
Each partition will require a disk controller with attached disk drives, a
network card (or twinax), a console, a CD-ROM drive to load the OS, and so
on.  While there may be workarounds to some of these requirements, we really
can't set up partitions unless the machine was ordered and configured
specifically for that purpose or unless it is very large and has
underutilized components.

The basic concepts of setting up partitions do seem well-defined and not too
hard to master.  The hardware planning that needs to occur before you set up
a partition is not a trivial matter.  Odds are your machine would not
support it as it exists right now.

Regards,
Andy Nolen-Parkhouse
