Wierd Linux formatting prob with Western Digital's EZ-Drive.
Hello,
This may be a newbie question but believe me I have spent
months looking for answers with no success.
When I try to install my RH Linux 4.1 I get to trouble with
finally formatting my partitions. I tried it a few times
with 1 large ROOT partition and then once with a 70m root, a
112m swap and a /usr and /home partitions which I mounted on
the root. When I try to format, 1 of 3 things happen: Either
it simply gets stuck for hours after hours, gives me a wierd
error screen with information on the segment registeres (ES,
FS, GS, etc.) or says:"Kernel panic: Free list corrupted".
Those who would want to help me, will recieve more details,
just mail the suggestions privately to me if you think the
list is not to be concerned with it.
Thank you kindly,
Klil N.
