Hi,

I could not help but notice that Hydrogen 7.1b has problems formatting the swap 
partition
during the installation.  Even using the "auto-allocate" option in diskdrake or 
selecting
"automated" install, I get a message "Swap partition must be."  The actual message 
reported
on screen 3 (or whatever) is "Swap partition must be at least 40kb."  This only occurs 
when
an extended partition is used.  If I manually allocate using only primary partitions,
everything is fine.

BTW, the inclusion of reiserfs during the install is *heaven*.  In this day and age of 
$225
27GB hard drives, I don't know why everyone refers to journalling filesystems as being
important for "enterprise only".

Hats off to Mandrake!
I've switched from Red to Blue... ;-)
