Greetings:

  I am rather new to linux, but I want to install slackware 7 into my 
toshiba satellite T2135CS (486/75 8 mb ram 520 hd).  I have read the laptop 
howto (to the best of my ability) plus the laptop section related to my 
laptop.  I copied the bare.i bootdisk image with rawrite plus the color.gz 
ramdisk image.  I also placed all of "A" set on disks.  I booted up my 
book, and the installation informs me that I need to partition my hard 
drive. I know how to do this, but whenever I type in "fdisk" or "fdisk 
/dev/hda1" [is this right for a laptop?] I get a 'Bus Error' reply.  Am I 
doing anything wrong here?

Any help is appreciated:

John Marr
