Hmm, Yast2, ever the helpful. Ok, another question, what kind of partition is it? FAT32, NTFS?
Another question: I assume since this machine has no floppy that you are booting from the CD. Do you have another bootable CD available (Win2000, another Linux distro, OpenBSD) that has a disk partitioning component to its installer that could get rid of the partition for you?
