Maybe, you are if you really select DES, I didn't tried. (You are warned in another choice if you try to grad the source code). 2) I got ``/ is full'' on the second terminal. 3) Some documents are missing (e.g slice.hlp, disklabel.hlp). 4) After escaping to a shell, I was not able to run a command ls, halt: not found (note that I tried this before writing on the disk). 5) I liked the xxxC input mode for rounding partitions to cylinder boundaries. thanks! 6) I didn't find a way to preserve partitions. I think you can if the disk already use slices. -------- -------- Philippe Charnier charnier@lirmm.fr LIRMM, 161 rue Ada, 34392 Montpellier cedex 5 -- France ------------------------------------------------------------------------
