i've had that problem when the partition was not marked as active. that could be your problem, boot offa disk and check fdisk, in linux utilities active is the same as 'bootable'
typically only 1 partition at a time per drive can be active, any more *may* cause problems. nate On Wed, 2 Feb 2000, Robert L.
