 You'll need to use a program such as "partition magic" to create 2
primary partitions.(most Fdisk utilities will only allow for 1 primary)
Fdisk for Linux is of coarse one of the exceptions to this.
(I used Caldera OpenLinux to do mine)

 Once you've got 2 primary partitions, it's a breeze to install W95 on
one and DR-DOS on the other.

 My system is "quad-boot"
3 primary partitions on the 5.7gig drive for OpenDos v7.01, W95 and W98
OpenLinux v2.3 on the 1.2gig drive
I can reboot to any one of the 4 OSs at a moments notice.
(30 seconds to reconfigure and reboot)

 BTW, I see you're using Nettamer v1.11.2
How do you like it so-far?
