Hi all.
I have a hard drive with ext2 fs on it, and I need to reformat it to put

How can I accomplish it?

Evening all.
I am trying to setup a secondary swap partition on a different IDE
controller in my system. I partitioned the drive, inserted
/dev/hdc5 noneswap sw pri=0 0 0
into the fstab ( I may be putting the pri=0 option in the wrong place, but
it works with the first swap partition)
Bu
orks beautifully.
ALso, just to make sure, try switching irqs with setserial for the Com1.
If it's IRQ conflict, it will help.

I think you need to get the startup disk for Win, and

Then rerun lilo.
