The original problem that I had was that the DOS partition was wrecked, so I couldnt get any program to work, I had to compleatly empty the partition table and start the installation again, then the redhat fdisk worked great. Thanks for the suggestions anyway.:) sharon -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ani_Adarsh Sent: Thursday, 20 December 2001 7:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: fdisk
Boot magic is a good alternative. Fdisk that comes with dos does not work properly for our use in linux partitioning Another alternative is to use the fdisk provided with Redhat in the CD its in the subfolder Dostools that works well Regards Ani > -----Original Message----- > From: northstone [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 11:51 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: fdisk > > Actually there is another alternative way to do it. > > look for powerquest PartitionMagic > > the steps: > > -install partition magic in friends computer. > -after installation, there is a sub menu for you to create rescue disk. > -create the rescue disk, then boot the Computer with the rescue disk. > -it will boot up your computer with windows typed user friendly interface. > there you can > do whatever you want. > > enjoy ! > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: dodo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Newsgroups: gated.redhat-list > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 12:53 PM > Subject: fdisk > > > > > > As I install redhat I get an error that tells me the logical partition > is > > type 0. and that this error is not defined by anaconda.
