Disc Druid is fantastic. Tell it what partitions you have, so that it generates the fstab for you, with the mount ponts you want. You also have to tell it whether to format that partition or not. Be very careful and read all the options carefully. If you are squeamish, don't set a mount point for your windows partition. Add it to fstab and grub by hand later, once your Linux is booted. Anyway, once you have entered the options for grub in the installation program, push next and it will ask you whether to format certain partitions and you click on yes or no. It works great. Just be very careful that you are completely aware which partition is which, ie, /dev/hda1 is most likely your windows partition (could be different in your case, but generally windows refuses to exist anywhere but the first primary partition of the first ide drive. The rest of your system will all be ext3, so there you are.). ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
