Acer TM313T and save-to-disk partition
About save-to-disk partitions... My notebook came preinstalled with W95 and save-to-disk on a file in the FAT partition. This works if and only if you have one partition only. Then I installed Debian and ran the DOS utility to create a "freeze" partition. Of course, it put it _over_ the Linux partition: I didn't notice and froze over it :) The problem is: the DOS utility always puts the partition at the end of the disk (and resizes the first partition, if any). Well, not exactly at the end: it leaves the last cilynder blank. Now, I HATE having 4 megs of unused disk :) What if I manually move the partition down one cylinder? Ciao, William
