FYI
On 03-09-2000 I installed Linux-Mandrake 7.1 on a Seagate model ST310212A
10Gb. Un-partition, unformat, I have IDE0,
Actually Larry, my experiences of this past weekend are proof positive
that no existing partition tables are necessary since mine didn't exist
when I reinstalled Mandrake on my hard disk. I still don't have a clear
idea what happened to them in the first place, but they were so badly
corrupted

Unformatted HD, will it format the disk when I get to diskdrake?
Also, I'm using the 10.2Gb ATA66 disk on a UDMA33 Controller. Will I
encounter any probs in the running of linux if I use this config?
Thanx in advance

Personally I don't trust diskdrake but yes, it should partition and format
your drive. It's said, however, that you need an existing partition table
before

Mandrake's GUI Install has an auto partition button. Good for beginers. Further
windows will prompt
