Hey, First, I'm at work and I had typed a nice long e-mail about my problems and before I mailed it. My workstation crashed -- didn't I hear a rumor that NT was stable. Only mine crashed and all I was doing was typing e-mail!!!!
Anyway..... I attempted to created a linux partition from a 40mb dos partition. I did this.... mkfsk.ext2 /dev/hda1 then in fstab /dev/hda1 /dos ext2 default,rw 0 1 -- have to admit I winged this one!!! /dos was the name of the directory on /dev/hda1 --- I think this maybe the problem. It worked, until I shutdown for the night. On reboot, I had to run fsck.ext2 and that repaired the problem until I shutdown....finally after trying all type of stuff -- used cfdisk,fdisk etc. I used fdisk and changed it back to dos. Now there is now problem except I need it to be linux. 2) After, I did all that I tried to log in as a user in X and it would not let me. From the way in failed I now in a problem that xf86config will fix...resolution. But, I can still log in under root and it works. Isn't everyones xf86config the same? Rod.....
