Jean-David,
        Here is my fdisk, hda1 came up as unreadable so I used what the floppy
uses to boot to. This is a single 40 gig hd with Win98 on the first 26
gig, linux using the rest. Any ideas?

Thank in advance for any help

Disk /dev/hdc1: 26.2 GB, 26222160384 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3187 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

      Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdc1p1 ? 120513 235786 925929529+ 68 Unknown
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/hdc1p2 ? 82801 116350 269488144 79 Unknown
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/hdc1p3 ? 33551 120595 699181456 53 OnTrack DM6 Aux3
Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/hdc1p4 ? 86812 86813 10668+ 49 Unknown
Partition 4 does not end on cylinder boundary.

Partition table entries are not in disk order
