I tried PM on another drive in another box that dual boots Win98 and 
FC3t1, both of which are expendable. It gave me "Error #510 This version 
of the file system is not supported" when I tried Partition Properties 
on the / partition.
I haven't decided yet what I'm gonna try next but every move I make will 
be deliberate. And PM ("Now supports -- Linux Ext3 partitions, GRUB...") 
will not be included in any course of action.

Thanks again for your interest.
