On one thread you post that the link I gave you didn't have the answer - not true. You cannot 'fix' your problem as is - if you did not create the boot filesystem in accordance with both the OS and BIOS, then it's going to fail. The 'fix' is to do it again and get the 20MB of info into the first 1024 cylinders.
(From the posted link)
$1. Is there any way around this problem?
Your boot filesystem defaults to 20 MB. This, plus a little
bit of stuff that comes before it (divvy table, boot loader, etc.),
need to reside in the first 1024 cylinders, so you'll need slightly
more than 20 MB free there. The rest can follow from cylinders
1024 onwards without problems.

(I would also suggest that you insure you have a good backup of your Windows 98 or have the software )

arithmetic
ARITHMETIC(6) BSD Games Manual ARITHMETIC(6)
NAME
arithmetic -- quiz on simple arithmetic
SYNOPSIS
arithmetic [-o +-x/] [-r range]
DESCRIPTION
arithmetic asks you to solve problems in simple arithmetic. Each question must be answered correctly before going on to the next. After
every 20 problems, it prints the score so far and the time taken. You can quit at any time by typing the interrupt or end-of-file character.
The options are as follows:
-o By default, arithmetic asks questions on addition of numbers from 0 to 10, and corresponding subtraction. By supplying one or more
of the characters +-x/, you can ask for problems in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, respectively. If you give
one of these characters more than once, that kind of problem will be asked correspondingly more often.
-r If a range is supplied, arithmetic selects the numbers in its problems in the following way. For addition and multiplication, the
numbers to be added or multiplied are between 0 and range, inclusive. For subtraction and division, both the required result and the
number to divide by or subtract will be between 0 and range. (Of course, arithmetic will not ask you to divide by 0.) The default
is 10.
When you get a problem wrong, arithmetic will remember the numbers involved, and will tend to select those numbers more often than others, in
problems of the same sort. Eventually it will forgive and forget.
arithmetic cannot be persuaded to tell you the right answer. You must work it out for yourself.
DIAGNOSTICS
``What?'' if you get a question wrong. ``Right!'' if you get it right. ``Please type a number.'' if arithmetic doesn't understand what you
typed.
