risk of screwing up the partitions...
Eh? If it was removed, how did I manage to format a drive using ext3
during the installation of a server last weekend???
some pimple faced hacker probably did this as a form of geek-like
"ethnic cleansing"...well it worked...
No....that was the failure to _RTFO_ (Read The Fine Options) during the
installation. It was there as an option last weekend (in Debian Woody
3.0r2), so I'm _SURE_ it's still there now. Did you install with kernel
version 2.4.x ?
If not, therein lies the problem...
