I have a 13Gb Hard drive which is probably stuffed but I thought I would ask
the list for advice before I biff it.

First symptom was that it did not want to coexist with my other HD on my new
MOBO.
I managed to put it into another box and boot into Gentoo Live CD and scp
the files I needed to keep to my new hardware so nothing is lost.

I planned to fit the drive into one of my sons' boxes but we had the
"coexistence" problem.
Tried using Gentoo Live-cd - cfdisk to remove partitions then create a fat32
partition and did not get any errors.
Win 98 startup disk would not let us create partition

Did a "low-level format" but still cannot create partition from ms-dos or
windows.

Any ideas?

Rob
