Well, I haven't tried the above yet and will be
reading Donald's LVM report. I downloaded and
installed the newest Fat32 files and success! I am now
accessing the large Fat32 partition in ECS. This is
good! Donald suggested I post my LVM report  so here
it is:

A1 is FAT32 (no volume) and is the win98  system.
A2,3,4 is linux, and the boot managing is done by
LILO.
