partitioning hard disk
|
|
|
| hi all,
i am trying to install Fedora core on my laptop, which already has xp
pro. when i installed the xp pro, i divied the hard disk into 'c' and
'd' drives. 'c' drive has xp pro on it. now i am trying to install
fedora on d. but, i still need to have another hard disk space that
doesn't have os on it for just storage space. i hope that space is
accessible from xp pro (and/or fedora). would it be possible to make
partitions like that when i install fedora?? thanks

Try again, this time leave the hard drive space blank and not formatted, let
Linux format and use the blank space. Please review the Installation guide
found here before starting, pay extra attention to; 6. Disk Partitioning;
