LinuxQuestions.org - lilo and hiding partitions

2 pages that cover hiding partitions (for/from winANY):
LILO Trickery
Booting Multiple Operating Systems With LILO.

they both use deactivate and set=dos16_big_hidden in lilo to hide partitions that occur before the intended C:\ or might get mixed up with another winANY C:\.

Code:

change

    partition = /dev/hda1

      deactivate                # Deactivate and hide the DOS partition.

      set = DOS16_big_hidden

    partition = /dev/hda2

      deactivate                # Deactivate and hide the Win 95 partition.

      set = DOS16_big_hidden

    partition = /dev/hda3

      deactivate                # Deactivate OS/2's partition.  Don't bother

                                #  to hide it because Win 95 can't see an HPFS

                                #  formatted partition.

    partition = /dev/hdb1

      activate                        # Activate the partition Win 95 is being booted

      set = DOS16_big_normal

any idea what the 'set=' command should be for fat32/vfat partitions?

in grub, i'd be using hide and unhide (but i don't use grub).
