Thumbs down


A new problem! Kept getting the "Enter Run Level" prompt after installing twice after formatting-Tried entering 1 and various #'s-no luck=so I upgave putting Linux on my second hard drive and decided to put it on the first partition of the 3rd hard drive which is on the Primary on the ATA 66 Controller.Tried to go the easy way and let it install on it's own to the first partition- a warning window comes up about using Drakx-try to click ok- just freezes-so went back to doing Expert install -I could swear I'm doing this the same way as before-but who knows- click on the first partition of hda-click on EXT2 format then create a 15mb boot partition,then root partition,try to create a swap partition and get the following error message:
"Partitioning Failed: raw_add: partitioning table already full at /usr/bin/perl-install/partition_table.pm line644,line6"- I have no idea what's going on now.Is there A Linux FDISK/Format program or something to that effect to prime the disk to accept the Linux installation like you do for Windows? I don't see why this won't work- the install on the other disk was to a Windows partition also- I"M EXTREMELY LOST NOW! HELP! Dave
