I'm trying to install SuSE 7 Pro on a K6-2 300 w 64MB RAM & 20GB IBM HD. =
When I go to partition the drive manually (I want to set up my own =
partitions and use the Reiser Journalling FS) the machine reports that =
there is an invalid partition table on the drive. It then proceeds to =
install everything in the /boot partition. What do I do? I've booted =
from a Win98 floppy and tried fdisk and fdisk /mbr. Still no soap.
