Well, I spoke too soon Civilme. I have been back and forth so many times on the partitioning of this drive that apparently I filled up the partition table or something ... it won't let me finish any partitioning now ...when I try to go to the formatting stage following diskdrake, its gives me an error message: raw_add: partition table full. I tried rebooting and starting over but still the same message. So I'm stuck and can't load anything on this drive. Any idea of what has gone wrong or how to fix it?
