Hi,
I have now booted my machine and got rio
started (Thanks again jim).
However when I try to do a diskpart I get a complaint
that partitions 1 & 2 overlap on the disk.
I don't claim to understand the Extended partition table - I
havent looked at this kind of thing for years, however
the output from linux looks OK; the Windows FDISK.EXE
also seems happy.
The disk is 6.4G which is 1/3 NT, 1/3 Linux
and 1/3 blank (will be Plan9).
Linux debug info below:

# sfdisk -l /dev/hda
Disk /dev/hda: 789 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 8225280 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from

Thanks for any/all help
