Why don't you disconnect the slave drive until the installation is complete. That way you get Linux installed and up and running. Then connect the slave and configure it using hardrake/diskdrake. On Tue, 3 Sep 2002, faisal gillani wrote: Well i am installing mandrake linux on my server but

I think that the questionable partition is the /boot. Did you specify that in DiskDrake as your /boot partition? Did you tell lilo to use the hda1 or hda to install the boot loader? Suggestion, try using FDISK instead of diskdrake. Diskdrake is a very handy tool, but it isn't perfect.

Yes, that's what the message sounded like to me, but it didn't seem likely. I have set it up (on 2 disks) with: 128M/ 32M swap 1.8G/var 5G /home 256Mswap 256M/tmp 3.5G/usr That seems to me to allow plenty of space. And it should leave much more than 843k
