Every time I enter RedHat Linux 5.1,the swap partion is lost (the partion flag changed to 92 instead of 82),and soon the whole system will halt,but when I back to dos,I find the partion flag is still 82,and when I enter RedHat,it changed again,why? I use a compaq presario computer(4620),I have also installed RedHat on some other machine(i386),the same thing happened.
What utility are you using to create the partitions? Are you using the utilities that are provided with Linux?
