search through the manuals but don't seem to able to proceed from there.

I am using Mandrake 8.1, 500k memory, 256 CPU /dev/hda7 7.4Gbt 84% free

Any help would be very much appreciated.

[newbie] PARTITIONING HARDRIVE

2001-09-10 Thread Ivor Westwood 

Hi Michael

Thank you for the information on fdisk. Everything worked OK.

One further question. F drive,  the CD drive, has now become D drive. Do I 
leave it in or delete it?

Thank you

[newbie] PARTIONING HARDRIVE

2001-09-09 Thread Ivor Westwood 

Hi All

I have a 17Gb hardrive  partitioned into three.  C. 2.5Gb,  D. 6.55Gb  E. 
6.55Gb. I had this partitioning done when I was going to install BiOs, but 
the computer shop installed Windows in all three partitions. I really 
wanted  Windows only in the 1st partition.

Now my question is this. Can I delete D and E and format them with Linux 
leaving C with Windows 98 intact.? This would save me a great deal of 
installation of Windows programs I  have to use, if I deleted the whole drive.

I would appreciate it if someone is able to put me on the right track.
  Thank you

Ivor Westwood
