If I may suggest another solution... 

Boris asked:

1. Solution
I've a tiny DOS program called Part I'm crazy about -- saved my ass (read:
HD) 
more than once!
You can edit the partitions table on the MBR with it, to fix errors, edit
partition sizes, create/delete/erase/clone, and even format FAT/FAT32 
partitions with it! 
Colorful GUI (char-mode) interface too!
(Part.exe, Ranish's Partition Manager; maybe some Linux tools do it
(easily) too?)

Oh, to answer Boris' problem:
If these partitions are logical, you can edit the chaining-order... ah, too
tired to
explain now -- it's all in LILO's readme... (Order of the four primaries in
that 
table can be changed too, but I suspect OSs sort them by cylinder,
disregarding.)

eMail me for details.
(I might summarize this and simil stuff as a "tutorial/guide", when Chen'll
say 
the ZWiki is stable?)

2. Linux/win?
I disagree, Ira, if you don't mind, that this is an exclusive winbugs issue...
What's more, win users are usually blissfully ignorant about these disgusting 
problems, no? 
(... yet another UnixHater, eh? :o)
