I just got a hold of the Red Hat Linux distro, so I decided to set up a dual boot with Windows XP. I have 2 SATA HD, 40 & 80GB. I installed Windows in half of the 40 and made the 80 a storage drive. They are both NTFS, but I left 20GB free and unformatted on the 40.
When I boot with the Linux disk, it tells me that it cannot find any HDs on the system. It gives me the option to add a device driver with a disk, than gives me 2 options:
fd0
hda
I am forced to pick one that the drivers would be on. I have a floppy with them on it. In XP, I press F6 and install the drivers. How do I get Linux to understand my HD and install itself in the empty space? Do I have to reformat as FAT32 to get it to work? thanks,
