Can't get to fdisk using Sarge installer for Alpha



I'm a linux newbie.

I have an alphastation 200 (233mhz) booting from the SRM console.  When
installing from the woody boot floppies I get the chance to run fdisk to
create the BSD disk slice required for this system, the normal partitioner
doesn't work.

There are no sarge boot floppies I've seen.  When booting from the
netinstall cd I don't get the chance to run fdisk, only the normal
partitioner.

This is less than useful, yes?  It would be really good if I had the chance
to run fdisk from the text menu, as in woody, so I can create meaningful
diskslices.

Thank you,

Eric Marcus
