Hi, Thanks to all who responded to my query regarding win95 D: disappearing when I make an extended partition in Linux fdisk. Sorry I can't acknowledge your contributions personally! The most popular answer seems to be that Winduhs-type apologies for operating systems are uncomfortable with more than one primary partition which they can recognise. If I create an extended partition, that partition will become D: and my original D: will probably be accessible as E: (haven't checked this out yet). The solution? Break my kids' hearts and reinstall all Winduhs stuff from scratch. This time I'll install '95 and NT in that order, on two seperate partitions, '95 on a primary and NT on an extended partition. It seems that it may be possible to actually install '95 and NT both on a single partition too, but I don't have the courage to try that out right now :-) Once again, thanks for all the enlightening information!
