| Hi I'm having some newbie problems installing slackware 9.1 on our new HP Proliant DL360. After I'm booting with e.x. kernel raid.s and try to use cfdisk for partioning, I only get 649.80 mb displayed as free space. I've also tried scsi.s, scsi2.s and scsi3.s Anyone who knows what I'm dooing wrong ? - Peter |

Does cfdisk display partioins actively? I always use fdisk, and you have to press 'p' to display the partition table with it. Anyway, if the space is already allocated, that would seriously cut down on your free space. |

I now have 146 GB of space Thanks anyway. Peter |
