What did you initially select as your partitioning method (auto, disk druid, or fdisk?)
disk druid
this computer was already dual booting Win98 + Win2000, and I wanted to install Redhat Linux on it as well.
Looks fixed in CVS (and in 8.0 for that matter) by making sure that we always go through a partitioning screen sanely.
