AGH! okay all. i know this sounds terribly stupid, but as you all know, i have next to no experience with Unix. Now i installed debian, and let's say my partitions are completely messed up, i don't know how the file system works etc. I need to read a book, but i seriously need help to get out of this one. Okay, first of all, through the setup, what exactly do i specify for the cdrom. Next, when i'm into my account and it runs dselect, how do i get it to install x-windows etc. (i keep getting the message: not a valid block) (i need SO much help). Now, i can't even boot to anything except linux using the boot floppy. How would i create a partition that would be named C:\ using a FAT16 or FAT32 file system so i could restore windows95? aghh!!
my intentions are: -Get back valid partitions, 3.1 gig hdd -Run windows 95 (i have a product restore that copies only to a drive labeled C:\) -Run debian on another different partition with the x-windows interface, and the others possibly I know this list is so helpful, so somebody please help... sorry for all the trouble, once i read up, i'll be able to answer my own questions. thanks a lot, i'm on my old 286 right now -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
