I'm trying to configure LILO to allow me to boot from my FAT

Windows one.
Debian on /dev/hda2 and /dev/hda3; Win98 on dev/hda1
/etc/lilo.conf reads:

Something else I thought of; did you create the Win98 partition with the
DOS/Windows version of fdisk, and the Linux partitions with a Linux tool
(cfdisk, fdisk, etc)? If you didn't use native tools for each partition
type, that may be the source of your problems.
