hmm
Ya, but I am seriously hurting in the fundage department... and i have an extra 50 gigs... so i dont really see the point in buying a new one... that would seem superfluous...
so strictly on a partitioning level, would I be safe to just run fdisk and set up one in bios? or would that jack my comp?
Sorry for invading the Linux fourms with just normal comp questions... but the question was spawned out of my need for linux... Thanks
