I installed debian 1.3 on a pentium a few days ago, with an extended dos
drive from cylinders 0 to 266. I have three logical drives, from 1-8
9-100 101-199, with cylinders 200-266 being part of the extended drive,
but not part of any logical drive.
On installing debian, forgetting about my extended drive, the linux
partition started on cylinder 200, and did not tell me about the extended
drive. Apparently OS/2 does the same thing.
Thanks,
JP
