Subject: [LI] Partitions ...?????

Hi ,
I have one hdd, partationed into two
and NT loaded in Primary partation and linux on the other.
I was using Lilo loader to access Linux and NT .
Now i used ParatitionMagic to repartation my Linux Paration.
I created one FAT partation of 1GB  from that.
now when i boot trhu Lilo, by giving the paramater  root=/dev/hda6   I get
some error msg saying that Bad magic No. on disk. and it takes it as my swap
partaion

What to do now...??
