Ouch. Just got the same here. After running 2.2.0p2 for a while
booting into W98 reports C: full and registry errors. Scandisk
reported boot track corrupted...which might cause misreported space
and fixed it.

I have no idea what details may help...

C: Maxtor 8.4GB disk with IRQ's on
D: Maxtor 3.8GB disk with IRQ's on
no lilo, starts linux from loadlin
P2-266, 64MB
DE4x5 runs eth0, switched away from tulip
as many modules as possible
