create 2 partitions in D:
one ext3 partition 5GB or more
one swap partition 1GB or less (128MB minimum)
I like Norton Ghost for this job but in knoppix CD there is qtparted tool
Hey, I just posted this in the HDD Install Forum but I thiink it might be better served here:
I'm running Windows 2000 and Windows recognizes that my single hard drive is partitioned into C and D. D is completely unformatted with nothing on it. However, there is only one physical drive, I originally did the partitioning during the Windows 2000 installation.
How can I install Knoppix to the D drive? I don't want to wipe away my C drive but it didn't allow a D to be selected when it came to the hard drive selection.
Also, I think I accidently clicked Okay when I was pressing quit and it said that my C disc was Read - Only and I didn't have the permissions.
Can anyone help?

I answered your questions in the HD install forum which is where this post belongs.Originally Posted by nmitchell
but in your answer there is not a word about MS Windows tools for partitioning ( Ghost, Paragon Manager etc)Originally Posted by UnderScore
why?
... pienso que el que está meando fuera del tarro es Ud. ...
The Windows partitioning tools can only make blank partitions & can not format a partition for Linux.Originally Posted by oscar
The knoppix installer will automatically start qtparted to partition the HD.
Reading the HD Install HowTo and watching a flash video is very educational & explains the need for not just 1 partition but 2 partitions.
You provided no help to this user and instead have wasted time to critque me.![]()

...but I am wrong too... I am talking about Partition Manager or Paragon Manager (btw there is a linux version of Paragon Manager too)
Ghost is for backup as almost everybody knows including me...![]()
