eerrhhmmmm... I guess you should first create a file system
/ext2/reserfs/swap/ in your intended Linux partition ...?
sorry, I have no experience with NT-Linux just Win98-Linux
my set up is like this .....
|-- primary --|---------------- extended --------|
| "C" | "D" | "E" | "F" |
|<------ logical drives ---------->|
| hdaX | hdaX | hdaY | hdaY |
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|<------- windows ----------------->|<-- Linux ->|
|<------- fat32-------------------->|<---------->|
A
/ext2/reserfs/swap/------------------|
where: 1 <= X <= 4 [i guess...]
where: 5 <= Y [i guess...]
from my experience RH6.2 requires that the
"/" or "/boot" be in hdaX
while LM7.1 & LM7.2 should be ok with both hdaX & hdaY
HTH ...
