There are a few programs I want to use that won't run in eCS: Palm
Desktop and eProcrates, a subscription medical data base for my Palm;
Corel Draw 8; Alps MD 1000 printer (to make decals for model RR); and
some (few) websites won't work in Mozilla under eCS.

I did install them on Drive 3 (by unplugging Drives 1 & 2), but I could
not get LVM to put WinMe in BM. WinMe is a pain in the arse: it insists
on formatting the entire 120 GB drive as C: unless I partition it first.
I made a FAT32 partition with FDISK. I will just install WinMe in a
FAT16 2GB partition and see if it works.

What did you do to cause this?
I used FDISK when I should not have.

Think DOS.  These things want to be installed on a primary on the first
drive.  With Win2K, it's possible to install most of the components to
another partition, but boot loader still must be on a primary on the first
drive.
