Hello 

Since I've installed Linux Suse 6.1 and Win98 on my new hard disk, I've
been experiencing 
some problems.

The problem is that win98 assigns drive letters to my 3 linux partitions
but - naturally - can not read them so that some programs give problems
on accessing them.

I used the installation tool to create the partitions.

My disk layout is like this.
 1 linux boot (83)
 1 linuxswap  (82)
 1 win98        (b)
 1 extended     (5)
    2 * linux   (83)
    3 * dos    (6)

It's a 6.4 GB WD 26400.

It it a problem of windows or is my partition table somehow damaged?

The other problem is that I can not mount the 3 extended window
partitions or convert them to fat32.
(I compiled (v)fat support into the kernel.)

I've run the wd-diags and it found no problems.

On old hard disk there were no problems.

Greeting 

Larry
