Well it looks like a strange problem because this error has disapeared from the forum since july 2004 but here it is :
I try to make a frugall install so I launch the script but I get this message :

"Sorry system has not detected a linux partition.
(...)
script is terminating..."

I've created my linux partition using cfdisk, then using partition magik under windows and everything looks okay, I even got Linux Distribs running on these partition, so I'm kind of sure that the problem is elsewhere. I rebooted many times, there's no way to  get my linux partition detected.

As anyone got this problem and resolved it?

Well I solved this problem with the wind*ws method : I deleted all my partitions and then created only a primary ext2 partition, then it worked... hope I won't have to make it too often, cause saving all data takes some times...
