cfdisk says hda is smaller than it really is!



I am trying to install Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 on a Dell Inspiron 7000 with a
14.1GB hard drive.  Currently, Win98 has half of it and I am hoping to give
Linux the other half.  During the partitioning part of the installation
process, however, cfdisk tells me, "yes, Win98 has a 6740MB partition, but
there is only some 800MB free!"  So, uh, any suggestions?  Thanks in
advance.
