multiple boot
Hi there this might help u solve ur problem on multi boot
We have that problem before what we saw is linux cant read fat32 filesystem for some reason ,so what we did is change the partition of win98 to fat16.And now system boots up .
This is for redhat 7.0 i'm not sure if they corrected that problem at the new version , but its worth a shot .Coz ours still workin .....
Also when u partition make sure u got 2 partition at ur hard drive one is fat16 for win98 and the rest will be ur linux .
Second is u can use a third party multiboot os SYSTEM COMMANDER we tried this also it works well .

findfs
FINDFS(8) System Administration FINDFS(8) NAME
findfs - find a filesystem by label or UUID SYNOPSIS
findfs NAME=value DESCRIPTION
findfs will search the block devices in the system looking for a filesystem or partition with specified tag. The currently supported tags are: LABEL=<label> Specifies filesystem label. UUID=<uuid> Specifies filesystem UUID. PARTUUID=<uuid> Specifies partition UUID. This partition identifier is supported for example for GUID Partition Table (GPT) partition tables. PARTLABEL=<label> Specifies partition label (name). The partition labels are supported for example for GUID Partition Table (GPT) or MAC partition tables. If the filesystem or partition is found, the device name will be printed on stdout. The complete overview about filesystems and partitions you can get for example by lsblk --fs partx --show <disk> blkid EXIT STATUS
0 success 1 label or uuid cannot be found 2 usage error, wrong number of arguments or unknown option AUTHOR
findfs was originally written by Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> and re-written for the util-linux package by Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>. ENVIRONMENT
LIBBLKID_DEBUG=all enables libblkid debug output. SEE ALSO
blkid(8), lsblk(8), partx(8) AVAILABILITY
The findfs command is part of the util-linux package and is available from Linux Kernel Archive <https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils /util-linux/>. util-linux March 2014 FINDFS(8)
