It's possible that your ex-FAT partition is still marked as being a DOS/Windows partition in the partition table. To check: go into Linux as root, and type "fdisk /dev/hda". Type 'p' to show the partition types, and note what's written by the 'System' column - the Linux one should be ID 83 (System: Linux). Chances are, if Win2k is detecting it, it's marked as some DOS/Windows ID. To change it, type 't' to change a partition type; then enter the partition number (which you got from printing it via 'p'), enter "83" to mark it as a Linux partition (so Windows won't recognise it as drive D:) Dan - -- I am so optimistic about beef prices that I've just leased a pot roast with an option to buy. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.8 iQA/AwUBPHk4LZdDUnce+EgsEQLM5gCfRef8w8sOqVuvb3TC2ZmujOt5b3QAoLy4 n+wF2sb/3pRBweL8v+3d8tHd =V9Wd -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
