1.

2.
No.
And the floppy boots very well, no error messages.

#clone
Your choice? 2 (ext2)
Partitions :
hda1 83 Linux native
hda2 a c Unknown
hda3 85 Unknown
hdb1 c Unknown
[...]
muLinux doesn't recognise my extended partitions (hda3 contains hda6-13),
that's probably where the problem is...
<<
Now, I will install muLinux, using the method "ext2". The installing partition
is "/dev/hda12"; the boot device in "/dev/fd0"; the boot loader should be "lilo"
Press -ENTER- to go
Reformatting /dev/hda12, any data loss...
You are sure => Y
abort: Excellent. Take care of your disk partitions!

So should I install on a primary partition instead ?
What should I do for muLinux to recognize all my partitions, including my
reiserfs ones ?
