OK, I used cfdisk to redo the linux partitions into just 2. The first is Linux Reiserfs (that's the kind dsl does) 1291.37M & second is Linux Swap 263.21M. I had a choice of little high or low in cfdisk, it doesn't give exactly what you say. I made hda5 bootable & removed bootable from hda1. Then I hit 'write' it said it had a problem with 're-read failed'. I rebooted & tried the hdinstall the way you said, nothing. I tried again in Xterminal with sudo. It said hda5 wasn't a linux partition, hda6 either. Rebooting it give a couple failed in the grey type that speeds by. Can't tell exactly what it says. Also, when it scans HD it says:modprobe: modprobe: can't locate 'module' minix. I'm not sure about spelling of module or minix. I even tried "dsl tohd=/dev/hda5" at the first. It couldn't read the linux. Any idea how to make it read correctly?? I am in 'sudo su' when I do the stuff. Thanks for the help.
PS I reset hda1 to bootable & removed it from hda5.
