This reminded me of another unsolved puzzle on my machine.

In my lilo.conf there is the following stanza:

other=/dev/hde1
        label=windowsOriginal
        table=/dev/hde
        map-drive=0x80 to=0x81
        map-drive=0x81 to=0x80

I don't know how these last two lines got there.  The windows stanza doesn't 
boot, but that may be because I mistakenly broke the chain of fat partitions.  
I have restored them, but I probably need to re-install windows, I guess.  
But that's a different issue.

The point here is that those two lines appear to contradict each other.  Is 
there a point to this?  If so, what's happening?
