I suspect the problem is that partman/parted doesn't know about atari partitions. I'll build a new set of images and an iso to go with it that should at least get you through the partitioning. Since we have a (more-or-less) working 2.4 kernel, the new stuff won't have have 2.2 support. Sounds like we've made some progress! Thanks, Stephen -- Stephen R.
