www.bootdisk.com try it with a MSDOS 622 or PCDOS disk and use its fdisk. There is some disagreement about partition marking between windows and linux and rumors that MickeyMouse will be changing again for some version of NTFS. So I would advise trying to cheat in this way. BTW there is now an Oreilly book on Knoppix and its tricks. Looked like a good toolkit to have just in case. -- +-----------------<<<<<<<CWSIV>>>>>>>----------------+ | | | | \ /|\ || |\ / |~~\ /~~\ /~~| //~~\ | | | \ / | \ || | X |__/| || |( `--. | | |__ | | \| \_/ / \ | \ \__/ \__| \\__/ | | | +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~+ ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
