In your first post, yopu mentioned PartitionMagic. Try creating, the formatting
the Linux partition(s) with PM (presuming you have the full PM v4.x). If
anything can do it, PM should be able to, else try fips.

I do not know if this works anymore, but when I did L-M 6.0, I was able to
first remove any partitions with disk druid, then go back to the previous
screen - at which point disk druid would ask if I wanted to write the
information to the dosk, and I said yes, then went forward again into disk

The version number is a way of identifying the distribution. For example,
Mandrake 6.0 has an older kernel, and older releases of some if not all the
software included in that distribution, as compared to the Mandrake 6.1 It is
just simpler to use a CD to upgrade the entire distribution in one
First, you can use modemtool to tell Linux where to find your modem, but you
must know to which COM port the modem is conected (modemtool will show you the
DOS equivalents on the same line with the Linux designations).
If your modem is a PnP device, it may not be using the same resources as it
