Hello.
I have been trying to install Linux Mandrake in my old computer and now I
cannot create a Linux partition.
Starting form my 1.2 Gigabyte IDE-HD with Windows NT4 system, I first
deleted the ancient NT partition and
created a new PRI-DOS partition (using fdisk).
When I tried to reformat the HD (using the DOS format command) I found that
only 4M existed !!!
I have tried using MIPS to shrink the DOS partition and create a Linux
partition (at least 1G) unsuccessfully.
MIPS gave an error in the boot record.
Then I tried to install Linux Mandrake 7.0 from a diskette using rawwrite
but I got the "no partition available" error.
I would like advice on how to define a partition for Linux (at least 1G).
The BIOS does not allow me to boot from CD.
Thank you.
