I've got one partition on one of my drives that used to be a logical
dos partion, but now it got hit so that it's an external dos (EXT DOS)
partion.  Fdisk doesn't recognize it as a dos partion anymore
while fdisk on linux says everything is all right (no, linux didn't
cause the problem, the OS/2 install from cdrom did while trying to
install the HPFS).  This is on the partition AFTER the one in which
I was installing the HPFS, and should have been alright.
