Q:  Will FIPS work ok with a Win95 partition ?

  Primary DOS
  CP/M  (for Concurrent DOS)
  Extended DOS (With several logical DOS partitions set up)
  HPFS  (for OS-2)

My question is this:  Can I delete some of the logical DOS partitions inside
of the extended DOS partition, and install the Linux partitions as logical
partitions inside of the Extended Partition?  And if so, how do I set up
LILO to be able to boot all of these OS's?  Or would I be better off buying
a second hard drive, where I could set up 4 more primary partitions?  And
what about Windows 95?  Doesn't that support yet a different type of file
system, needing its own partition?

Oops, I think my reply got lost, here goes again:
The Linux Installations Notes describes a way of installing Linux to a DOS
directory using 'usds144.gz' or 'usds12.gz' (depending on your floppy drive
type); it recommends it use ONLY in the situation you've described.
