>I too can get it to work if I use the entire drive.  I run into problems

Well, I should have said that my 1.05 GB DEC drive works as a DOS+386BSD+Linux
drive just fine..

>By the way, Jordan, the example above does not end on a cylinder boundry.

Cough..  Yeah, I know.  That's what I get for letting DOS put down the
partitions..  I'm losing about half a meg now due to misaligned
partitions at the moment, I just can't be bothered to lay them down
again correctly for now.
