A ha, that's clear. > >You said "it does not work", but what message do you get?

Works, just got to figure out how this CD was made. It says it hasn't a good structure and asks me to enter the paths. Just a few more q's: 1. As i mentioned I have an IDE zip-drive, it is recognized as a IDE floppy drive, but it looks like a driver is missing or something, because it does not want to read it. It says it doesn't have a msdos-file format, which it does. 2. Same message on HDA3, where some linux packages are located. Here's my partitioning on the 3,2 GB HD HDA1: Boot 120 MB HDA2: Root 1 GB HDA3: msdos-type (for now) with mail, packages and stuff like that. Is the problem that HDA3 starts after 540 (or something around that) MB ? > >Ciao, > Martin > Thanks, Marc [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
