Hi Folks,

dropping into knoppix, I realised that there is also a siegfried distri around that seems to be useful for my scenario at home.

It is based on knoppix 3.3 afaik so it should be a kernel above 2.4.19
I am noob on linux although I am looking into the scene for quit some years now.
Here is my problem:

I manually configured my partinions with cfdisk and for a first run I'd like to have 3 primes with
/dev/hda1 as swap (500MB)
/dev/hda2 as root (2,5GB)
/dev/hda3 (~152 GB) that I tried to set as home

root is ext3 I did try to set the type to hda3 also to ext3 but it does not display as for hda1 and hda2. There it says 'swap' and 'ext3' behind the partionions. Hda3 has nothing behind it.
writing the ptable cfdisk tells me that it could not reload partition table and asks for a reboot.
After rebooting it shows the same scenario. I tried to set it as 'swap' than it is shown but I do not need 2 swaps.

Where is the mistake?

Thanks in advance
