Problems with installation
Hello,
I have a Toshiba Satellite M70-165 that I bought some days ago. This machine
came with WinXP and some Toshiba software. Then, I decided to download the
lastest ISO stable Debian for i386, and burned it. My pretension was to
divide my hard drive of 80Gb taking 15Gb for Win and the other for Linux. So
I rebooted and during the installation process of debian an error said:
(I'm spanish so I'm doing my best for trying to translate it to english, so
sorry for my english)
"[!!]Partitioning of disks
There are no partitionable means.
Couldn't find means that can be partitionable. Please, make sure that a hard
drive disk has been connected."
Supposedly during the installation process I could partitionate manually the
disk, but I could see that I couldn't do it. Then I searched more
information about that topic and I then realized that I must use a software
on win for make partitions. Then I used Partition Magic and made a partition
for Linux with EXT2 file system (around 62gb) and little partition
additional for that swap (1gb). Rebooted again, but my the surprise was big
when the same error than before appeared.
I've searched more about that, but I can't find what to do. I need debian on
my new computer seriously.
Thank you in advance and sorry for my english level.
