I have older pc with win 98 on it and was going to use it to learn
linux. I have puppy linux already but was repartitioning the hard
drive and preserving the win 98 if possible and try for dual boot. I
am still reading a lot.

I have downloaded Part240 but just looked at it. I realized I needed
to do more research before I tried to repartition the 8 gig hard
drive. I have 64 mb of ram and am scavenging old pc for more. The
processor runs and 400 mhz. It has an amd chip and was a good computer
for me.

I just want to repartition leaving adequate room for win 98 and
possibly a partition for linux, one partition for a swap file, and
possible another partition for data. If I don't need a swap file then
I could end up with 3 partitions and not 4. 

Any advice is welcome

Harold
