I will try it this weekend, since my MSX is at my parents house. I was quite
surprised when i discovered that i could access the first two partitions of
a MSX-partitionized ZIPdisk (three times 32MB) on a PC with W98.

That also might be an option. It's a long time ago i used FDISK3.0 for the
bert interface, but as far as i can remember the sector size could be
modified (don't exactly know the values) and also the partition table could
be saved into a file. I will figure out this weekend if it can help me and
I'll let you know.
Grtz,
Siebe.
