Suse 8 Installation Issues

Hello,

I'm trying to install Suse 8.0 on a pc.

Once I've got past the initial setup screen and it brings up the preparing hard drive message I get an error message:

FDisk failed.

The disk has an unsupported partition table

Repartition Disk /dev/hda

I've tried repartitioning with both fdisk and pdisk. Originally this was a windows nt machine with two ntfs partitions. I've removed both partitions and put a single fat32 partition, but I still get the same error.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Richard
