And I have yet to use it, and have it work just fine. For an example, the last time I tried it, it made a 500MB /usr dir on an 80GB disk, and moved the 100 MB /dev/hda1 "/boot" partition to hda5, and gave it 10GB.
Interesting as I used DD in manual mode and it did exactly what I told it to. I wanted a 1.5 GB partition and it created it where I wanted it too.
With help like that, I don't need any more enemies, thats more than sufficient. Gimme fdisk any old day by default. It may be hard for a gnubee to understand, but it does exactly what you tell it to instead of silently 're-adjusting' things to suit its own warped, broken, positively phsycopathic view of the world.
If you want FDISK, boot using linux text from the installation line.
So am I. What's the point? I also am a System Admin by day and live with Linux at night. BTW, FC3 is a BETA. You are testing software for Red Hat, and that is a fact. I would NEVER run a production system on FC. That is why I state that I "play" with Linux. If I wanted a "solid" release, I would be looking at RHEL, not Fedora.No thanks to DD. I have enough insanity in my life, I'm married.
