Unable to install Slack. 10.2
Hello.
I'm trying to install slackware 10.2 on a machine that already has windows XP, Suse 10.2 and Suse 9.3 (actually I want to replace Suse 9.3 with slack). I boot from the first slack CD, login as root, run setup and a screen pops up that warns me "NO LINUX PARTITIONS DETECTED". I then run fdisk and get the error message "Unable to open /dev/sda". If I run fdisk from my suse distro, I get the following:
# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes

Any help is appreciated.
