Well, yep, the latter is the problem. :) Selecting ``NO'' is not supposed to undo the A)ll, but it's supposed to not even write a fdisk table to the disk that could be used by other operating systems on the same disk (``dangerously dedicated mode''). To undo the A)ll selection, simply go back to the partition editor, and select its undo menu item (i think it's `U', but i'm not sure). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
