Err, yes. What David said. ;) And to think, I was going to suggest a using a linux root/boot disk. <Shameless promotion of the RULE project> I have one that is used by The Rule project to start the 'slinky' installer. It's a linux system on a floppy that will boot in 4Mb. of RAM. Once booted, you'll have a shell with access to a decent subset of linux utilities. Among the included utilities are fdisk and cfdisk (as well as 91 other commands). This should allow you to delete all existing partitions without difficulty. http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/slinky-boot.img </Shameless promotion of the RULE project> - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.2 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjzGHIcACgkQn/07WoAb/SslzgCgmc8i7DOckp3ycmSmqYe+3gNs svgAoIlCBAx21kA45wSRixgMiTlVE4Zr =O549 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
