I don't know about the FAT32 stuff under linux, but I needed to dual
boot warp and win95. In order to get this to work, I had to first setup
the OS/2 boot manager and then installed warp, then win95, followed by
resetting the boot manager (which win95 tells me exists and that I would
not be able to use anymore - rubbish)
I have heard of a lot of people having problems with dual booting with
win95, esp.
with warp. I previsously had this setup so that Linux, warp and dos were
in the boot manager, with no problems.
I didn't use the FAT32, because it seemed like when it was suggesting to
convert the hard drive from the old FAT16, it might actully try to do
the whole drive, something that would have been bad for my data!
So one possible solution would be to install a boot manager, but then
you'll
either have to get a copy of partition magic or reformat and start from
the
begining
Hope this helps
