I don't have your Asus board (I have a couple of machines with Asus boards, but they are older than yours). This may not be relevant, but if I were in your position I would try partitioning with Knoppix or tomsrtbt , and then choose "Custom setup" (not the right phrase) when Anaconda gets round to partitioning. What does Knoppix think about your disks? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
