Dear All,
I agree about using System Commander. I had my hard disk totally go bad 2
weeks ago and then put in a new one. I almost used fdisk to partition but
last minute I decided to try my System Commander. It worked absolutely great.
I was very impressed. I am up and running now without a pro

I'm not 100% sure I understand your problem correctly, but no where in this
text do you mention running DOS fdisk command to resetup DOS partitions for
windows support. I'm not that familiar with the linux form of fdisk but at
least in the GUI disk convertors while they do a great job for linux
p
machines and this is the response I received from Powerquest Partition
Magic's tech-support.

I would suggest you get a Windows98 boot disc with fdisk and delpart
First you boot form floppy, then you make delpart to loose everything on
your hard drive, you use fdisk to create new partitions you reboot your
machine with your floppy inside... then you format your hard drives format
Last time I said this, a lot of people yelled at me, but download a utility from
the drive manufacturer and do a low-level format.

The
only thing that would cause this, is if Linux activated UDMA/66 (or 100) on a
UDMA capable drive that was only working at UDMA/33 or below under
winblows.
Certain drives, once set to UDMA/66
continue to attempt to operate in this mode, even through a power
off.

Opps I see that you've alread read the man page...
Now try ENABLING the extra features, ONE AT A TIME...
Linux disables 32 bit I/O, DMA, etc. by default for compatibility purposes.
You'll need to enable this on your drive... but test this FIRST!

Hi
I have the same problem and I didn't update anything. I bought my
Mandrake 6.0 (Venus) in CheapBytes.
Is it necessary to update some thing to avoid that? If yes, which are
the files and where do I catch them? Thank you.

By any chance, are you using Mandrake 6.0-1 without having updated the
kernel and initscripts package?
