But when I tried to take a chunk of a Quantum Bigfoot (2550A - I think) 2.? gig every thing went well at the DOS prompt (machine runs (or is that has the runs) Windoze 95). But when I get to fdisk under BSD there are 4 partitions already set up and ofcourse nothing is right (offset, starting, ending points etc) and the empty chunk of drive is no where to be seen. I've install - sharing drive with Windoze95 - before with no problem, is it the Quantum drive? The drive geometry reported is 624/128/63 -- Keith ------------------------------------------------------- Keith Leonard - kleon@bellsouth.net Webmaster - http://www.rexart.com - Rex Art Supplies ------------------------------------------------------- Character is what you are in the dark - John Warfin -------------------------------------------------------
