Hello All (again), Let me make this as straight forward and short as possible but I need to give you Linux/Mandrake brains some history. After much research on my part about switching to Linux and then with all the security issues with Exposer(Explorer) I was fed up and made the move. However my confidence was not there so I opted for a dual boot system(bad mistake). Here's the harddrive layout of what I had - Cdrive was 80GB and had XP on it and I had a Ddrive of 120GB. So thinking I wanted to do a dual boot system I went and bought a 250GB for Linux. Tried the dual boot system and was not happy. So I tried to install Mandrake 10.0 and erase XP but (Not thinking) it put it back on the 250 Gb drive. So I went in and Installed Mandrake on the original Cdrive(after making copies of my data and pics) and had Mandarke do the partitioning. Everything seems to be ok but when I look at the Hard Disk on my desktop there is just one.
NOW- I go into system/config/mountpoints and look at the drives in there partition state and it is strange. hda - has ext3 and swap details hdb - has NOTHING for details hdc - has ext3 ans swap details What do I need to do? Do I have to start over AGAIN?(bummer) and a footnote, if I restart my pc I get a message that says "HardDrive Config error - sda was removed" one time and then the next time is says it was added. Sorry for the length of this. Please advise bj
