As executing cfdisk with root, the whole computer freezes when trying to write a new partition...
Any help?
Any Necessary Additional Info?
------------------------------
CFDisk Error: "Cannot Open Disk Drive"
Fdisk error: "Cannot Open /dev/hda"
Got those errors when executing Cfdisk and Fdisk as a normal user. When i execute them with root i don't get any errors, but, when trying to write a new partition the whole computer freezes.

It happens when trying to install DSL into HD from the Live CD boot... =[ I can't at all write... Windows run fine...I think that's a problem with some HD Trail that DSL uses...
