Installing RedHat9 problem
 
Hi, I got some problem installing RedHat 9.0 on my computer, which has Windows XP installed already.
When I'd chosen partition by using Disk Druid and clicked NEXT, a warning popped up saying the following:

"The partition table on device hda was unreadable. To create new partitioins it must be initialized, causing the loss of ALL DATA on this drive.
This operation will override any pevious installation choices about witch drives to ignore.
Would you like to initialize this drive, erasing ALL DATA?:

I used to have the same experience before, but at that time I chose YES, ending up having ALL DATA on my computer totally destroyed! So this time I don't know what to do. Hope somebody could help me out of this. d:)

Thanks a lot.
Here is the partition information in my computer: (FAT32)
C(10G), D(20G), E(20G), F(20G), G(6G)
I want to have RH installed on drive G.

I think I should have been a little more specific..sorry...

So are u using Windows XP....?

And I guess...G is your extended logical partition..??

Are you trying to do a manual partitioning or automatic partitioning in the setup of RH9.

More later....

Get yourself a copy of the latest Fedora Core. The problems with Anaconda for Redhat 9 were fixed in Fedora Core.
