Can anybody help?


I'm trying to load Red Hat 7.2 on the Hercules emulator but get the
following error:



"Unable to determine geometry of file/device /tmp/dasda.  You should not use
Parted unless you REALLY know what you're doing."



The emulator starts up fine and I get into the Red Hat installation.



I've done everything according to the
http://www.linuxvm.org/Info/HOWTOs/hercules.html
<http://www.linuxvm.org/Info/HOWTOs/hercules.html>  howto.



If I ignore this error it goes on to format the dasda drive but directly
afterwards I get an error saying that the device doesn't exist.
