So?

Given your fdisk listing and reading what is says:

Drive Name Partition Vtype FStype Status Start Size

1 0000003f : 1 0a 2 0 7
1 OS2 C: 1 07 1 7 502
1 000fef40 D: 2 07 0 509 251

1 01c30b6f O: 2 06 0 14433 604
1 01d5eb3d : 3 00 0 15037 4502
**BIOS:8032MB

we find that based on the combination of hardware and software you have
installed, you will not be able to boot from any partition that ends at or
above 8032MB. This means you can only boot partitions C: to I:. Since
the trap dump partition locations has the same rules, your trap dump
partition must be one of C: to I:.

This is a Warp4 limitation. eCS and MCP do not have this limitation.

Regards,

Steven
