Hello everyone. I am very new to Linux (Fedora in particular) and I am having a hard time getting up and running. I have a Gateway Pentium III 500 MHz with 128 MB of RAM running Windows 98 (with 10 GB free space). I have reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled Win. 98. I then tried to install Fedora 3 and at the prompt where I specify "keep all partitions and use existing free space," so as to have a duel boot system, an error message comes back that says "Could not allocate requested partitions." This happens with the auto partition option. I have no idea how to do the necessay steps manually, but it seems that the auto partition option should work. After closing that error message, another comes back that says "you have not defined a root (/) partion which is required for installation of Fedora." I'm guessing this is a simple problem to fix, I just don't know where to get started. Thank you very much for any help you might be able to provide. Have a good one, Ken __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Meet the all-new My Yahoo! - Try it today! http://my.yahoo.com
