Default W98 DOS on a FAT32 partition - booting causes a reboot.

Hello all,

I just created a 5 GByte bootable FAT32 partition and formatted it using the
/s option (to transfer the systemfiles to it). However, when I than restart
there just is a delay of about 10 seconds, after which it reboots.

The odd thing is that booting from a FAT16 thumbdrive and than accessing the
above parition (the C: drive) works allright (already created a DOS folder
and copied files into it)

I've tried to google the problem, but nothing jumps out. Does anyone know
whats going on here and how to fix it ?

Regards,
Rudy Wieser.
