Hi. Problem when installing Slackware 8.0. I have a completely unpartitioned hard drive in my system, which would be /dev/hdc - meaning that it is drive number 3. CFDisk and Fdisk will not allow me to write to this drive, to prepare a Linux partition. Any ideas why this could be? CFDisk says I do not have permition to write to this drive, and FDisk says there are no free sectors. I have to say that the SuSE partitioning tools seem much more intelligent, it handles it with no problem whatsoever. Assuming I cannot get this to work, is there a tool within Slackware which would allow me to shrink a FAT32 Windows partition? Better still, does anybody else run SuSE with speech? If so, could they create me a boot disk image? Kind regards, Gordon Smith. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "mailto:Gordon Smith <gordon at tft-bbs.co.uk" "mailto:Gordon Smith <07932634539 at one2one.net" http://www.tft-bbs.co.uk> ftp://ftp.tft-bbs.co.uk ftp://ftp.tft-bbs.com ftp://ftp.tft-bbs.org.uk ICQ: 23973878 MSN Messenger: gordon at tft-bbs.co.uk Tel.: +44 7932 634 539 Fax.: +44 1642 357 754
