Case: Libretto 110 HD: 40 Gb First partition: Primary Partition approx 5 GB this will be the W2K root (FAT32) Second Partition: Primary Partition approx 2Gb this will contain the Installation files (FAT) I leave 102 Mb empty Then I create a Logical Partition with 1 large NTFS partition The partitions I create on my XP Laptop using a USB-to-HD converter thingy (Kama Connect) Then I copy the W2K CD to the second partition. Remove the HD from the USB (on a nice way etc...) Insert the HD into the libretto Boot using a Win98 disk Do a cd C: looks OK cd D: Abort/Fail/Retry... GRRRRR!!! Go back to the XP delete the Logical Partition Boot again in Win98 and then I can access the D: driver WHY DO I HAVE TO DELETE THE LOGICAL Partiton!? Avi. (yeah, I know, the 40 Gb is probably BIG for the bios... but I don't understand it...)
