I started from scratch, sort of 

First I did a full backup on tape of all my partitions

Fdisked the drive to remove everything

Installed M$ dos to a new partiton, 

(I used M$ dos because System Commander had a problem with DR-Dos made
partitions. BTW Partition Magic had the same problems and I asked about
it some time a ago on this list, and got an answer should be in the
archives.)

Installed System Commander

Using System Commanders OS Wizard I recreated my extended partition and
Installed DR-Dos in the same partition that M$ dos was in.

Restored my Dos/Win3.1 from tape. It all still worked and I could chose
either DR or M$ dos.

Again with the OS Wizard I installed Win98, it automaticly makes the new
partiton

Now I can boot Win98, DR dos, or M$ dos

I am sure I might have missed a step here or there but you get the idea
;)
