Nice to have a recipe to get the porridge just right.  ;-)

I'm gonna take a stab at it over the next couple of days & I'll post
results, but I _think_ I can get the Win98 fdisk onto a bootable
floppy and then FAT32 & partition a hard drive from there.  I seem to
recall having done it about four years back, but i'm a bit fuzzy on
the details at this moment.  Need to pull my Win98 CD & some old tech
references.

THANKS !
