Steve:
Windoze has to be on the First Partition of the first drive, I found this
out when I was running OS/2 Warp.
What you need to do therefore, is probably just switch the drives around,
make the windoze partition on the master. You can still put lilo (or
BootMaster from Partition Magic) on the Boot Sector of this drive.
