Steven:
     To answer your questions in this e-mail:
1) ppsetup gives me the standard four-choice text menu and I appear to 
be able to alter or load the settings.
2) dmesg does not indicate any problems.
3) mount displays all the mounted drive as rw.

I think I will try rebooting with the DOS partion as bootable. Maybe 
that will make this work better.

Andy

P.S. -- On the good news side, dmesg does indicate that the OS 
recognizes my CD-ROM as hdc now. I either hadn't noticed that or it 
wasn't the case before.
