    newknoppixguy:

    Please post your partition table using this command:

    bash# fdisk -l /dev/hda

    hda is ide0 master. If your boot drive is somewhere else then substitute hda with whatever drive you are using (hda, hdb, or hdd).

    thank you.

    This is the error I got the first time with a one or a I:
    bash: bash#: command not found

    This si the error I got when I used the line that is on the key with a baskslash.
    bash: bash#: command not found
    bash: /dev/hda: Permission denied

    In X you can select text with your mouse in almost any application. Just hold the left mouse button down and sweep the pointer across the text. For instance, select this text:

    fdisk -l /dev/hda

    Then alt-tab to your root console window and use the middle mouse button to paste the text. On wheel mice the wheel is the middle mouse button.

    Cutting and pasting avoids typos and font ambiguities.

    This is what I got when I wrote it in the ctrl+alt+F2 thing. And I wrote the letter "ell". I'll also do bold, normal so you don't get mixed up.

    I wrote: fdisk -l /dev/hda

    and this is what I got:

    Disk /dev/hda: 6800 MB, 6800080896 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/traks, 826 cylinders
    Untis = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

    Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
    /dev/hda1 1 826 6634813+ 83 Linux

    Thats all!
