Noted with thanks After selecting "Automatically partition" and click "Next" following page popup 1. Remove all Linux partitions on this system 2. Remove all partitions on this system 3. keep all partitions and use existing free space (already checked automatically) hda 378173 MB Maxtor (already checked automatically) hdc 378173 MB Maxtor - Review (and modify if needed) the partition created I check point-1 above as well as last point (Review (and modify if needed) the partition created) (Remark: the capacity of each drive is 40G) Furthermore can I use RH9.0 CD#1 to check the drives after booting up. If YES, how to do it? Thanks in advance. B.R. Stephen Got an I Care HK! Idea?
