Two quite different things :)

Actually, what I have is a 6.4G drive partitioned down into 2 450M Boot
Partitions (one for Win95 (FAT32) and one for Win31(FAT16)), then two more
partitions, one 4.3G (FAT32) and the last about 900M (FAT16)
I just guess you can't trust everything you read in the manuals ;-)
