Perhaps the message is coming up in the installer? It could be that it's trying to make space with the existing Windows partitions and can't, and is asking you to use Windows to defrag the Windows partitions so it can resize them for a Linux installation.
Quite probably that's it.
Why would it do that? I have quite a number of LiveCDs from the LiveCD list and have tried running them on a number of machines, my own, those of friends and - shock!!horror - even ones in stores. I've never met this.
It is not a live. He said: ] How do I know when and how to defrag my computer with open suse , or ] don't I have to worry about it? Not puppy, but suse. Later he said. ] Indeed it is liggit, bought it from Discountlinux, a very reputable ] firm, that particular livecd puppy 431 does work fine on two other ] machines, with opensuse and also with ubuntu on the hard drive, and that ] is what it said " DEFRAG PLEASE" A paragraph that I don't understand at all. The only place I have seen linux complaining about the need to defrag, is while installing on a existing windows partition which is going to be shrinked. So, our collective crystal ball says that he is doing an installation on hd with windows. But we do not know for sure. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
