Re: new PC164LX doesn't grok partition table

Well, the fdisk that came with RH5.1 on the Linux Powertools set worked fine
installing on my Quantum Atlas II drive, on an AHA-2940UW, in a PC164LX mobo
with 256MB of RAM.  I just tagged /dev/sda0 as a 2MB MSDOS partition in 
Linux fdisk, and put MILO in there to live, and AlphaBIOS boots it just
fine.

Well, again, I had no problems whatsoever on the above box (an Aspen Durango
II) with RH 5.1.
