I think that by "no partitioning" he meant no dual boot or
seperate partition for Linux/windoze, not "I don't want to
re-partition the disk".
In which case just whack the CD in and go for it, do a text based
install, chose fdisk as the tool, re-partition as desired, (
though I recommend a 16M /boot as the first partition on the disk)
write the partition table, can/exit that install and re-start but
this time in graphics mode (where you don't get a choice of
fdisk, hence the mucking around with the text based install).
'course if you're paranoid about doze virus infections then do a
low level format using the bios first.
