Hi

I just installed mandrake 7.2 and now dos can't see my fat32 extended
partitions (although linux still sees them). Prior to the mandrake install
my harddrive was configured into 5 partitions - a primary dos fat32 parition
("c:") which I had recently formatted (in fact I was so slack I didn't make
it bootable even), and 4 logical fat32 paritions "d" to "g". Parititons "e"
through to "g" contained valuable data, but paritition "d" was emtpy. So
when I installed linux I used diskdrake to "delete" partition "d" and
replace it with the required linux paritions. Mandrake works fine but when I
boot up, say using a win98 boot disk, dos can see "c:", but no other hard
drive paritions.

Anyone know what happened and how to fix it? I can still obviously access
all my data through linux, but it would be nice to have dos back to normal.

Thanks,

Ivor
