Hi folks:
I used the Partition Magic
(limited version from Mandrake-Linux 6.0 - MacMillian Publishing)
to partition my drive.
It worked fine then, I then told Partition Magic to delete the partition
used by Linux.
It says the partition was successfully deleted, yet when I go to create a
new partition again, it says...
"A Linux partition already exists, cannot create new partition"
I tried several times to delete the partition, yet it still says (when
using the delete Linux partition function) that a partition of approx.
7.8mb still exists, and it won't let me create another.
How do I fix this problem??
The only partitions I see are the main one which has Win95 on it...and a
small DOS Ext partition of approx 8mb.
I guess thats my problem partition...
I tried to remove this small partition as well using "fdisk" in DOS...and
it will not let me delete it... :-/
Has anybody run into this before?
I promise I won't muck about with the partitions if I ever get Linux
working again :-)
- thanks for your time and troubles -
