I got my system assembled last week. I partitioned the HDD into two, the primary C: was 2GB, and the rest, 27GB, was the extended partitioned. I then created two logical DOS drives, e and f, for applications. I have now decided to dual-boot with Win98 and Red Hat Linux.
I created a Linux boot disk, and started setup. I got as far as Disk Druid. According to reccomendations, I successfully added a swap partition of 128MB, and a /root of 4GB. But when I tried to add the reccomended 16MB boot partition, it told me the partition was too big.
What can I do? I thought maybe I had to shrink the Extended DOS partition, allowing Disk Druid to partition the way it wanted too. I tried running FIPS, but when I selected to resize the Extended DOS partition it reported saying that the file system is unknown(0Fh). Help will be appreciated.
