Summary: not fdisk's fault!

The error you are experiencing is not the fauld of fdisk. Minix does not
give a flip about the type of partition it uses. (DOS 3.3 might complain
later on though...)

I had similar problems with the hard disk until I patched the wini.c
driver with hints from a posting by Garry Oliver and one by Harry
McGavren.
