Try out RH's fdisk instead of DD. I had an old drive on my Gatewy that
refused to deal with DD.

Asunto: RH6 crashes out of diskdriud with error 11!


My colleage at work is trying to set up a linux server.  RH6 boots the pc
installation goes smoothly until dd.  Firstly adding a filesystem to the
drive (max limits of space) says it cannot do since there is no space.  The
way around this is to use "delete" then after this the type of filesystem
appears listed in diskdriud window (the very one it could not create).
Anyway so having created the filesystems click on ok to create them move on
etc.  dd crashes with a signal 11 error.

Whats going on?

PS the disks are less than 3.5gb in size and were still formated in msdos
format.  There are some bad sectors according to dos one of the disks.
