List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi, if you used Linux fdisk there is an option called change partition type, or something like that. Anyway, you need to set it to type 82, and then Linux will automatically asign it as a swop. Now, it will prompt you with a dialog to select your mount points in diskdruid. Basically, the first place you are is the list of partitions. Arrow to the one you want, and tab to the edit button. This is really tricky at first. If you want everything installed in one place in the edit box simply put a / there, and it will put everything in /dev/hda3 which will be called /. .
