IJMC - Some Stuff to Know

I really need to finish up this three OS in one drive project. Every time 
I spend a night working on it, I fail to send out posts for a few days or 
so. This last time, a few nights ago, I came real close. All I thought I 
had left to do was to figure out the ARC path name so that Windows NT 
boot loader would load Windows 98 off of a FAT32 partition (lost yet?). 
Then I rebooted into NT...all good...reboot into Linux...ow. Turns out 
that the Win98 partition had overwritten half of one Linux partition and 
the entire Linux swap partition. Oi. Close...so close.              -dave
