I went for the "Whole Disk C:" option

Just noticed the error that appears after confirming the partitioning:
 Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!
 Error: Partition doesn't exist!

It does complain just before prompting to partition the drive about C/H/S
not multiplying out to  3145728.

I've done a manual partition of the disk with a single partition smaller
than the total size of the disk.

As such, I've got past the error I was getting about /dev/dsk1 but all that
seems to be happening now is I'm getting the dosemu startup screen and
nothing else.

Any clues?

What can I check?
Can I get the bootdisk to write a log file somewhere on z: ?

Cheers,
Mark.
