My attempt at a 7.0 text install to system with a drive full of FAT
partitions (intending to replace them with ext2 partitions) kept crashing
with a "partitions full" message without allowing me to access fdisk or disk
druid. the machine is a server so it has a nominal (crappy 512k vga)
graphics card (destined to run headless so why waste a good card?) so the
GUI install is not a viable option. Is it?
I am now circumventing the problem by using the new tomsrtbt to
re-partition and re-format the drive prior to the install.
Is this a bug? Or am I just not making the correct selections?
