Sorry for being so brain damaged that I didnīt get it the first time round. Your assumption must be right, it must be the JT Disk Manager (a product Iīve never heard of here in Germany) that is causing your problems. I would suggest leaving the new drive formatted (or not, it didnīt matter when I installed SuSE 5.3 on a brand new hdd) but *donīt* partition it for Linux with JT DM. Then go through the SuSE installation process again. This way, youīll be using Linuxī fdisk, mkfs and mount commands on the partitions you wish to create on the new hdd. Donīt touch the Win partition (-s?) on the old drive during installation. Hope this will work for you! -- __ o See you, Christoph Hammann, [EMAIL PROTECTED] _`\<, ;-) Too freaking busy feigning computer literacy (-; _( )/( )___________________________________________________________
