Perhaps it's true what you say , but on this laptop is impossible to installa Xp after another OS because they have released it with a preinstalled Cd that everytime deletes all the partitions on the HD. Many thanks for the help. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mohd Irfan R Khan To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 22, 2002 5:29 AM Subject: Re: Help with installation of 7.3 on a HP xe Omnibook 4500 May be u can try to install linux first with the required partition and then install xp as xp partition may be different.

First of all , i installed on it Windows Xp on hda3 (it resides on the first tracks of the HD) and i tried to install RH 7.3 on another partition. The result is that the install program lets me choose the method of partitioning the HD (Diskdruid or fdisk or install program) but when i choose one , it gives me an error messages (Unable to read the partition table) and stops the install procedure. I have tried to install on the same partition Sco Openserver 5.0.6. and the result was good. Have you some idea for helping me to solve the problem ?
