Repartition Format
Hi
I've just finished repartition my hard drive using FIPS and have confirmed
that the partition was done, but the new partition doesn't seem to be
formatted. I am a little bit confused how to format the new drive. Do I:
(a) - Format the new drive first in DOS then boot Linux from the
CD.
or
(b) - Format the new drive using the Linux fdisk, then boot Linux.
My new disk space for Linux is around 700MB could provide a nice way of
dividing this for Linux, (i.e how much do I reserve for root, swap disk (i
have 16MB RAM), usr, etc).
How do directly boot of the CD? From DOS or Win95?
Thanks
Patrick
