Sorry, wrong newsgroup, appologies etc, but yet:
Problem solved.
My second dos partition was Primary as well, no wonder it didn't format
(silly me (and silly msdos, of course)). Yet, it strikes me as odd that
dos _could_ format the first 90 sectors of the disk. It shouldn't be able
to read them at all. And the other way around, when I booted with the 2nd
partition as the active partition, I was able to reach the first
partition, but couldn't read a byte of it. Strange thing: reachable 2nd
primary partition, I'd say...
