The partition list lists two partitions, a small "unused" partition of 7
MB and a large partition which occupies the rest of the disk, formatted

Can anyone guide me throug this proces?
Here's my setup for a dual boot Compaq Presario dual boot
WinXP and Linux [trimmed]...

hda1 is the Compaq "rescue" partition
hda2 is the WinXP boot partition, also where I boot from
hda3 is /boot
hda4 is an extended partition containing hda5 and hda6
hda5 is my main Linux
hda6 is my swap

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
