Microsoft's fdisk is a crippled little beast that only understands Microsoft partitions. There are lots of things it can't delete. I especially like when it tells you that you can't delete an extended partition because there are logical drives inside it, and then tells you that there are no logical drives defined. To do what you're trying to do, you could use Caldera DR-DOS, which is much smarter. You might also be able to run the Red Hat installer and use fdisk to delete all existing 82/83 partitions and save changes, then abort the install. I also sometimes do this by booting to an OpenBSD disk, which has quite powerful disk utilities at its disposal, and doesn't try to second-guess me. - -d - -- David Talkington PGP key: http://www.prairienet.org/~dtalk/0xCA4C11AD.pgp -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.8 Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75-6 iQA/AwUBPMXarL9BpdPKTBGtEQJtmQCfXDiZr656vX694OV++g143Bhh9P8Anjp7 LJSCXTHfwVqxbAwviXU/raBR =37Zf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
