I looked up the problem and if your IDE controller supports "extended
translation" then your boot and/or system partition can exceed 1024
cylinders. These IDE controllers are identified as "enhanced IDE" or
EIDE controllers and I believe have been standard on all new computers for
the last few years. If your IDE controller is not EIDE than you can
purchase an EIDE controller very cheaply. Therefore with EIDE you need
only 1 partition for your entire hard drive, from what I read.
If you want to persist with your current configuration I would have allowed
more space for your C: drive then you did, at least 1 Gig, but otherwise
your scheme seems OK.
