Whats with partition 2? What is the problem here. I am trying to work with this documentation, but it seems to be trial and error. Has someone done this b4? If so can you post or e-mail some tips please. -Ron -- *************************************************************************** Ron Bolin rlb@mindspring.com * GSU CS Grad Student gs01rlb@panther.gsu.edu * UNIX spoken here not MicroSoft Work Home * Federated Systems Group (System Specialist) (770) 263-2273 770-992-8877 * ****************************************************************************
