Hi Susan, To answer your question, several assumptions must be made: 1. PM is being used as your partition manager. 2. You do not intend to use a RAID array. Assuming affirmative for the above, Disk 0 - 30G master C: 2.0G /W98 FAT32 - primary (existing) /etc 4.5G /Linux (existing) D: 2.5G /Millen. FAT32 - extended logical part. E: 2.5G /W2k NTFS (keep to minim.install and use as Backup if you intend to use W2k as your main o/s F: 18.5G /Program Applications FAT32 (Install all your non- essential o/s applications here). Disk 1 - 40G -slave G:/ 3.0G/W2K NTFS (may want to use as server later - keep on seperate hdd) E:/ 10.0G/W2kPgm Files NTFS (Install all non-essential o/s W2k applic here) F:/ 27.0G/ FAT32 (whatever you want-- I use for backing up an o/s main folders. (WINNT/ Win32) Just my $.02 worth. Some suggest starting with a small (500mb) FAT16 partition as C:/primary so as to be able to install utility programs such as PM and DI4.0/Ghost 6.5, but if you are going to have W98 (not as your main o/s) than it can serve this purpose. If you do intend to use W98 as a main o/s, consider putting a small primary boot partition as Fat16 with Dos6.2 Notice that I do not have any Linux partitions on hdd1. Its up to you do decide where Linux should go. You may want one on hdd1. God Bless and have fun. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com Visit our website regularly for FAQs, articles, how-to's, tech tips and much more http://freepctech.com
