f15h True Techie Join Date: Nov 2004 Posts: 105	disk management I need to install an OS on unpartitioned space by sending over system files after mounting the partition. The problem is, I can't mount it because I can't see it. No integrated device or disk managers will find my unpartitioned space. What can I do? i'm using FC2... merci, die fische __________________ *les poissant souples*
