How large is your harddrive? How many partitions do you need, and how many does NT occupy? Now I have a 6.4 GB hard drive on my I series Thinkpad, and Windows 98 is on the first 2 GB partition.The next partion is hda5 and mounts /, then hda6 mounts /home, and hda7 is where /usr is mounted. m Now hda5 is 500MB hda6 is 500 MB, and hda7 is 2 GB. Swap is hda8, and is 62 MB. I Dual Boot using grub. which is onj the root of the hda drive. I used theMandrake 7.1 install disk to setup my partitions. If you have any questions I will be glad to help, Don ... -- 73 de KK6WJ
