Subject: Re: HD upgrade 8mg limit

thanks for the reply, sofar seems to work fine.
Mandrake 7.2 installed on the portion of the drive not seen by bios, 
however I am concerned that by using a combination of fdisk/partmagic/and 
the linux partition manager, I may not have left space for the hibernation, 
any ideas where the bios is likley to put it. I am assuming a portion of 
unused space = to or > than the ammount of ram (in this case 32meg) at the 
end of the drive as seen by the bios? any ideas would be welcome.

Secondly a problem with the screen size and Linux, the desktop is fine and 
defaults to 640 x 480 however when opening the config manager in either 
gnome or KDE the screen is greater than the visable area, the window can be 
moved around however not sufficently to see lower portion of the window 
(the bit with the buttons on) I can find no way of resizing that particular 
screen window?
