Linux FDISK PROBLEMS



I have down loaded, the debian version of Linux and created the boot
and root disks.  They start up fine, however when I attempt to set up a 
partition, it cannot get the partition table information. 

A little bit about my system, I have a 486 dx2 66 with a Vesa Local Bus 
motherboard, on board ide and io ports, with the ide controller disabled.  
I have an eide card with its own bios installed to allow me to have
drive 0 being a 325 MB (with 2 partitions C, E) and Drive 1 being an 850
with one Dos Partition (500MB D).  The rest of my drive 1 was to be set up 
for linux and the swap. When I request a display of the existing 
partitions I get a blank screen.  The EIDE Card I have is a Future Domain.

		Any Ideas ??
