Dosemu actually looks for mounted dos parititions that have the files on
them that make it bootable, I believe, rather than the bootable partition
flag.
As for trying to fix it... I would boot back into linux from disk and fix
the partition tables there -- change bootable flags and such back to how
you had them. Then run lilo.
