I tried to partition my disk with fdisk the way I wanted. I would recommend you use 'parted -a optimal' or gparted for this purpose (see below). It had the usual Linux partitions and a partition that I was going to use for Window 7. I wanted to make this an LVM2 partition, but that didn't work; I guess that was too ambitious. I am not sure that you can use LVM2 for MSWindows - as far as I know they use Logical Disk Manager which it is not the same with any other sane LVM implementation - come on now, would you expect them to seek compatibility or interoperability?!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Disk_Manager Then I just made it an ordinary static HPFS/NTFS partition on /dev/sda5. When installing Windows 7 it wouldn't install on that partition. I deleted all the partitions and just installed it on the first 50Gigs of the disk. Second, the questions. The Windows 7 install on the first 50Gigs of the disk needed to created two partitions. The first was a very small boot partition that I increased to 128Megs, and the second is the rest of Windows 7. Now when I boot to the livecd to partition the rest of the disk for Gentoo fdisk says Partition 1 does not end on a cylinder boundary. Is this a problem? The other big question is: what do I do Dunno, it might be that win7 changed the amount of heads/sectors that could give that notice from fdisk. I would not be to worrified about it (Installing windows would be more horrifying). If you have a traditional hd then the worst thing I think might be that reads/writes would be slower. If I'm not mistaken, this alignment is actually a good thing. It is related to the transition from 512 B blocks to 4 kB and also helps alignments for SSDs. In this regard, Win 7 behaves very clever and really much better than the old and proven Linux tools (unless you know what you are doing and are aware of every issue). IMHO it is a real shame that most Linux tools are still behind in this regard. Only some are. The 'parted -a optimal' or gparted will seek to align the end of a partition, but you will find that it may under/overshoot your specified size to achieve that. fdisk et al have some development to do yet. If you think you have an HDD with 4kB blocks, ask and I can provide you with some links on that topic. about the first partition in the partition table? It is an HPFS/NTFS partition and has been toggled bootable. It also has some stuff in it that looks like it's important to Windows: a BOOTSECT.BAK file, a Boot directory, a System Volume Information directory, and a bootmgr file. Now for my Gentoo install, how and where do I make a /boot partition? Do I replace the Windows 7 boot partition with /boot? If so, what happens to the contents? or Do I make a /boot partition on /dev/sda3 and toggle the bootable flag there? Something like that. You could install gentoo on one partition (I don't recommend). No! Nothing like that. Leave the MS Windows boot partition alone and flagged as boot. MS Windows needs this, while Linux does not. Just make partitions like you would do without windows. When you do the grub-install script or by hand grub links the boot to the partition where boot exists. You should not remove or change the windows partitions or the data windows will probably brake when you do. Yep. Create a new partition; e.g. /dev/sda3 and use that as the /boot mountpoint for your Linux OS. This is where the grub fs, Linux OS kernels and related files will be saved. AFAIK, grub does not need the bootable flag. Leave it alone. Maybe Windows needs it, maybe it is just for good measure, I don't know. This is correct, MS Windows needs it and it will not boot without it, especially if you retain the MSWindows MBR boot code - although you can install GRUB in the MBR and chainload MSWindows from there with it. HTH. Thanks for all the input. It helped clear up a lot of questions. I spent the weekend installing to Operating Systems and it looks like it almost worked. I think the problem is in the Grub setup, so it should be repairable once I find the mistake. If it's something else, I may be doing this again next weekend. Thanks again, dhk
