I run the following and this is what I see
root@Linux:~# fdisk /dev/hdb
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/hdb: 3228 MB, 3228696576 bytes
128 heads, 63 sectors/track, 782 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 8064 * 512 = 4128768 bytes

/dev/hdb2 122 782 2665152 5 Extended
/dev/hdb5 * 122 782 2665120+ 83 Linux
I do not know why hdb2 is there. If it is mounted on my desktop it does not allow me to open it. If I try to delete #2 it deletes hdb2 and hdb5.
Here is my fstab
# /etc/fstab: filesystem table.

Also I am trying to get Open Office to install but I have no room left. From the above is there any way to tell what space I have left? Is there anything like Windows explorer that would show each drive with the space available. My drive icons on my desktop do not seem to help.
If I check each desktop icon hda1 hdb1 or hdd5 they all say the same thing 95% used, 144mb/2.5gb...yet they are all different sized drives as per the below...so why do I see them all as 2.5GB via their ICONS on the desktop??
