My actual problem is in trying to partition the HD. I run the auto =
partition mode and it gives me this message: Could not allocate =
requested partitions: partitioning failed: could not allocate =
partitions. Then it shows me this:
/dev/hda            start        end            size        type        =
mount point=20
    /dev/hda1         1         1022         2012         vfat       =20
    free space        1023    1023         1M         free space

I am installing this on an old Packard Bell 133 Pent. with 32 Meg of RAM =
and a 2 Gig H/D. I intend to set this up as a router in my LAN and to be =
the firewall to my cable modem. Any help would be appreciated.   Cliff
