I have a Maxtor 540MB drive connected to ide1 as master and a western
digital 640MB drive connected to ide2 as master. I set up the primary
partition on the Maxtor for 10MB and made the second partition 530MB. I set
up a primary partition on the western digital drive for 640MB. I get the
error "An error occurred..no available partitions" when I go through the
install. Is there a linux formatting tool that I need to use to format the
drives instead of Western Digital's Data Lifeguard Tools? I have tried 3
and 4 partitions and still get the error. I have tried with only one hard
drive and still get the error. I have formatted the drives so the
command.com is not there and I still get the error. Does anybody know what
"available partition" means???? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
