Hi all,
I was doing a linux install on a box that has WinXP,
when it came to partitioning cfdisk* claimed the following:
disk type size(Mb)
hda1 Dell Utility 32.91
hda2 NTFS 19979.21
Free Space 8.23
*cfdisk is the standard tool used by Debian GNU/Linux "testing"
ok, so I'm guessing cfdisk meant to say Kb but it takes
away from my confidence in lilo handling this job
correctly :(
...also, NTFS! I wasn't expecting that. ...and what's a "Dell
Utility" partition when it's at home?
To the point: Are there any known issues or success
storyings or cautions regarding WinXP & cfdisk/debian/lilo
???
