List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Yeah, but I have some bad sectors on my 4Gig drive on this old 200MHZ box and when I use Partition Magic to partition the drive, it won't go around these few bad sectors and partition the drive. Trying to find a good source of an inexpensive 6 to 10 gig drive to replace but don't want to spend a lot as con't see the point. Egghead is going under and can't find one there for now. Anyone know any good source for cheap but fully warranteed HDs or how I can brute force this silly partitioning issue and circumvent the bad sectors/clusters? I really am chomping at the bit to get up and running with linux. Thanks! - Amanda
