Hi (1)Linux often has problems with partition sizes greater than 8 gigabytes. It is also fussy about where the LILO is placed (the 1024 cylinders thing). (2) Mandrake Software has admitted that DiskDrake does not yet work as it should. To solve a similar problem I used Partition Magic 4.01, which allowed me to graphically, non-destructively, shrink Windows partitions and create Linux native partitions in the resulting free space. This is a commercial product and there may be free alternatives available but I have no personal experience of them. Regards, Ron Quoting Jared Mahoney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I just tried installing Mandrake 7.0 for the first time last night. I > have one 27GB partioned all in one FAT32 for 98.
