I tryed to partition the hard drive damn partition magic wouldnt do it. Maybe its becuase i have no clue wht im doing in that program. It says i cant be in windows while its making changes( I understand that part) how do i run partition magic in dos? and how many MB is 10 Gigs?
|
it's been a while since I used partition magic, but I think you make whatever changes and when you reboot, it makes the new partitions... not sure though...
easiest thing to do is spring for a new hard drive... then you don't have to worry anout screwing stuff up |
1000mb = 1gig ?
|
As I recall from partition magic... yes it's ben a long time, I think you make the changes, then it reboots to a dos screen and actually does the partioning, if that isn't the case then there is probably an icon in the program group to boot to the disk partitioner.

1024 MB = 1 GB (gig) |
Tell me how you like Linux when you get it set up.
|
Red Hat 8.0 really has come a long way as a Desktop App.
|
forget mandrake, download debian. It's alot better than Mandrake (granted, mandrake is user-friendly, and easy to install) but when you want to apt-get and download new stuff, Mandrake downloads everything at once, and not the certain file you need.
|
Yea Mandrake certainly has some short comings, but for a first install it is nice. I like Debian because they have a RSIC version as well https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Yeah, when I finally set up Linux, I'm going with Debian. I know a couple of Debian fanatics who sold me on the whole apt-get system.
