RE: A85: Sorry a lot off topic



Like I said: this should not have been possible.  Partition magic won't run
on the partition you have the software is on.  Delete the hard drive from
CMOS, boot up, it'll complain, reboot, re-set the hard drive up in CMOS,
and try loading up FDISK.  FDISK will still recognize non-dos partitions, btw.

really just made it a Non-Dos partition so DOS wouldn't recognize it... but
Fdsik does recognize that it is 19% full but doesn't now the file system it
is using, weird?) it was on.
