dear friends,
before few days, my pc was running fine. Than i saw a magazine "SMART COMPUTING SERIES" with free "LINUX BIZDESK CD 4.0". but i'm unable to install it on my pc.
before few days my pc config was given as below:
winXP(PRO) on e: (15 gb)
pictures+games+songs d: (15 gb)
some documents on c: (7 gb)
then i installed LINUX succesfully on C: DRIVE by formatting(only c drive), now problem was that winXP was unable to load and also i forgot my root password(in linux), so i formatted all drives except D:, due to this i have lost all files of winXP, now my c: and d: are empty. So i installed winXP again on C: drive!
now my E: DRIVE is totaly empty, and [b]here is new and major problem that LINUX is refusing to install on E: drive[b] during installation whenever i select(in partion option) AUTO PARTIONITING >>KEEP ALL PARTION AND USE EXISTING PARTION then it gives this message box:
ERROR PARTIONATING
could not allocate requested partions
Partionating failed: Could not allocate partions as primary partions.
and then say that go back and choose manual partionating
MANUAL PARTIONATING >>ADD PARTION >>FILE SYSTEM TYPE in this option when i select swap as 500 mb then it gave same message:
ERROR PARTIONATING
could not allocate requested partions
Partionating failed: Could not allocate partions as primary partions.
and when i select D: than also same message!!!!!!!!!!
i've checked my hard disk by running scandisk and ther is no errors/bad sectors, and also i've defragmented my all drive.
plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz frnds, plz help me now i dont want to format my drive again, plzzzzzzzzz help me how can i install LINUX on my drive??????????????
