OS/2 can only see one primary partition at a time. Not FDISK, not the
installation procedure - but OS/2 itself.

If you wanted to access this drive, you should have installed OS/2 in a
logical partition (Personally, I'd reccomend HPFS, rather than your
choice of FAT), and OS/2 would have nicely recognized your Pri DOS
partition until the cows came home.
