Do you want to remove win98? If so, you can repartition your hd during the installation of Debian (uses cfdisk), in this process you remove the fat32 partition(s) and you can make ext2 and a swap partition, if you also want win98, you can also make a fat32 partition where you can install windows

that if you have FAT32 you should not try using LILO. Is this info up-to-date? What about the business about the Linux boot partition having to start below sector 1024 (assuming LILO can be used ). i have no trouble using lilo with Linux+Win98's FAT32. My setup is for a two-drive system
