Description of problem:
(Sorry, but bugzilla has no Disk Druid Entry...)

I had a disk with partitions made by Windows 98.  During RedHat 7.3
install, I was informed that something was wrong with the partitions.
I used Disk Druid to delete all the partitions, and created new ones.
Afterwards, the again got the same error message.  Obviously, Disk
Druid did not clear the entire partition table when all of the
individual partitions were removed.  I fixed the problem by running
fdisk and saving the partition table, with no other changes.

Can you reproduce the problem?

Comment 2 Brian M. Sutin 2002-08-19 23:48:03 UTC

The original disk was, as I said, finally fixed by fdisk.  I burned
the Windows 98 CD's.  Sorry.
