Hello All.  I went to install DSL on an existing Win98 PC.  The PC has a 30GB drive as master on the  first IDE controller.   When I try to fdisk (using sfdisk), it says no drive available.  It seems the system mounts the drive in fstab as /mnt/hda1, but I cant partition it.

Has anyone seen this before?

what is the exact command you're using?
Is the partition mounted when you try to fdisk?
