Hi all, its me again, the one with SparcClassic that didn't like a 2gig
hard drive. Well, after finally getting another chance to play with my
SparcClassic last night I was able to install suse on it!!!! It turns
out the problem I was having was that the drive I was using had been
formatted on a Windows machine and something that windows puts in the
partition table totally confused fdisk! My solution was to do a low-
level SCSI format of the drive and that fixed the problem!! So, I just
wanted to let everyone know what the problem turned out to be, and to
say thanks for all who offered suggestions/help! Now, its off to learn
how to configure a firewall!!!
