Subject: Re: Linux and NT From: "Donovan L. Freemyer" <dlfg@tsoft.com> Date: Thu, 15 Jul 1999 01:48:00 -0700 Use the fdisk from each OS in reverse order. This may fix it. OR go to the website of your hard drive manufacturer and download their utility for performing a LOW level format on the drive. Low Level formatting is slow but it will wipe the drive clean and do away with the messed up partitions.
