If your system boots up and you can login ... your OS is installed properly.. all other changes/fixes can be done without re-installing.

You need to give more details... what desktop ... what icons etc |there are three partitios hda7, hda8, and hda9 |but i am unable to get access to hda7 and hda8, so |please tell me how to aceess hda7, and hda8. i have |installed the o/s in hda9. |i am using hda1, hda5, hda6 for windows. are hda7 and 8 formatted ??? if they are formatted... you can mount them under linux if they aren't format them and then mount them!! :) (to format the partitions with linux e2fs filesystem) mke2fs /dev/hda7 mke2fs /dev/hda8 Kingsly _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
