I loaded XP on 1/3 of a 120 GB HDD; then loaded FC 6 on 1/3 (a 100 MB boot and the rest root.) I setup NTFS on the remaining 1/3, using XP, and I was using it to do some Ogg to MP3 conversion for my new Sansa e280. Now that 's finished and I want to re-partition to FAT32. XP can't do that from inside Disk Management.

Hey, I 'm just shooting the breeze. I'll work it out. I'm loving my new MP3 player, though!

Brian,
Probably what you will want to do is start with your windows install, during the install you will need to setup a partition for windows to be instaled into. Use windows partition tool (fdisk, ...) remove all partitions, and setup just the fat 32 partiion (leaving the rest of the disk unpartitioned. When windows is installed and setup and all working right, then you will want to install linux, during the install you will either let it automagicly use the unpartitioned space, or you can manually partition/format your linux paritions/filesystems.

I am tinkering with a dual boot machine, mentioned last week. I am going to make a FAT32 partition to be seen by both sides? Have you used FC 6 to set up a FAT32 partition? Last time I had this setup I used a windows start-up floppy disk. Any reason why I shouldn't do that? Besides, its supposed to be about Linux (and I want it to be about Linux.)
