fdisk /dev/hdd you will not be able to write the partition table (this makes sense) you must set heads sectors and cylinders (hum?) you can do this from the extra functions menu Warning: invalid flag 0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by w(rite) Ok, so I need the extra-functions menu. Where can I find it and how do I set it and to which values ? PS. jongmook. I have kernel 2.0.33 and the Zip works now.
