I have a Dell Inspiron 7000 notebook. (P2 366, 128MB RAM, 8GB HDD, etc..) (old) I got it for $50.
Anyway...
I currently have RedHat 9 installed on the system and it works just fine. (a little slow of course) I'm trying to install WIN 98SE since I don't know much about Linux. I put in the CD, run setup, and it says it has to repartition the drive (I know this, of course), but then it says "error on disk, cannot continue" (something like that anyway). So... I try just using FDISK to repartition the drive. I go through the first 1-2 options, I enter "create active DOS partition", and then nothing happens, I can't go back, and I must restart.
Can anyone help me figure out what to do?
