Hi there, I'm a newbie myself, so this will probably not work, but here goes anyway: login as root or su to root, and select Config->Media->DOS This is the install program and you are telling it to install from a DOS partition, so it lists all those that are available. Your NT drives should appear here (well, my win98 drives do, anyway). Good luck!
