Subject: Can someone explain the following?!

Case: Libretto 110
HD: 40 Gb

First partition: Primary Partition approx 5 GB this will be the W2K root
(FAT32)
Second Partition: Primary Partition approx 2Gb this will contain the
Installation files (FAT)
I leave 102 Mb empty
Then I create a Logical Partition with 1 large NTFS partition

The partitions I create on my XP Laptop using a USB-to-HD converter
thingy (Kama Connect)

Then I copy the W2K CD to the second partition.
Remove the HD from the USB (on a nice way etc...)

Insert the HD into the libretto
Boot using a Win98 disk
Do a
cd C:
looks OK
cd D:
Abort/Fail/Retry...

GRRRRR!!!

Go back to the XP
delete the Logical Partition

Boot again in Win98
and then I can access the D: driver

WHY DO I HAVE TO DELETE THE LOGICAL Partiton!?

Avi.
(yeah, I know, the 40 Gb is probably BIG for the bios... but I don't
understand it...)
