Odd thing happening here, actually. I don't have the problem you have above; I
have Warp 4 happily installed at the end of my 3.2Gb hard drive (EIDE) and
it's on the boot manager menu. However, now Warp's FDISK says the Partition
Mapping on disk 2 (the 3.2Gb) is corrupt, and won't let me do anything with
my partitions except delete them.

Warp's FDISK seems to have very mixed results. Sometimes it's quite good,
other times it's completely uncooperative for no obvious reason.
