This is the Linux fdisk output:

However, Windows's fdisk (I booted into command-prompt-only mode) told me that there was only one logical partition on drive D,
Drive D should have been the logical partition on the only extended partition. Are you sure you aren't mixing terminology? You should see in Windows one primary partition, one extended (which would be ~10G), which would have 3 logical partitions, the first2 probably saying non-DOS, the third saying FAT32. If I asume you mistook the extended partition for a logical partition, of which there IS only one, I think the above looks fine, and Windows 98 will only see D (/dev/hda7), not touching the 2 Linux partitions.
So, what's my next step?
Check again in Windows to verify it sees only one logical partition in the one extended partition, or if it in fact sees 3. If it sees one extended, 3 logical, then you are ready to go. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Web Address: http://www.mydestiny.net/~joe_morris Registered Linux user 231871 God said, I AM that I AM.
