wrong! DOS happily handles more than one primary DOS partition --
I've been using this setup for many years with various *DOS versions
from 5.0 to 6.22 and NovelDOS 7.0 etc.

Really? Go and boot from the second dos primary partition in a
hard disk. Do the same on win95... They 'll both hang. Or I did
something terribly wrong with my lilo setup.
