Pardon my ignorance (haven't been following the thread too closely) but why can't you partition the disk with the Linux fdisk? You can make the necessary partitions and change the type. To make the swap space, you can use mkswap. I do not know the particulars but I have used the above without issues. Just a thought. Maybe some kind soul will tell me why the original poster cannot do this?
The problem was that they couldn't get to a prompt from the installation disk menu. I think that just switching to another VC should allow you to fdisk it manually. -- David Smith Work Email: Dave.Smith@st.com STMicroelectronics Home Email: David.Smith@ds-electronics.co.uk Bristol, England GPG Key: 0xF13192F2
