Hit "m" to get to the menu, and select "p" to see how it currently is
partitioned.
My external USB hard drive looks like this;
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/sda: 4304 MB, 4304240640 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 523 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 523 4200966 83 Linux
I have used all of the hard drive for one partition.
look on the web (google) for the partition howto.
