hm, I guess you're talking about this thread? http://marc.free.net.ph/message/20050113.113849.a176bf21.en.html Sounds good to me. I just don't know why it should be used for only a few computers? I need an existing partition to run the mkfs.ext2-command, right? Would be ok, since we need to run PartitionMagic on every computer to get linux installed. In this case, would it be possible to make such a hook a "standard" for our lab? Thanks! mat.
