Hello,
I am tyring to partition my main drive to install Linux.  The drive 
is a 10G drive with NT already installed.  The drive is currently 
partitioned into 4 partitions, C is 2 gig, D is 3 gig, E is  3 gig 
and F is 2.7 gig.  All of the partitions were made under NT and 
they are all formatted NTFS, except for F is FAT.  The problem I 
am having is that when I go into disk druid, I get the following:

      Requested  Actual   Type
hda1   2015M      2015M   OS/2 HPFS
hda2   3000M      3000M   OS/2 HPFS
hda3   2000M      2000M   OS/2 HPFS
hda4   2748M      2748M   DOS 16-bit>=32

Drive   Geom        Total  Used    Free
hda    1024/64/63   2016M  9764M   -7748M

When I tried to delete hda4, I get

Drive   Geom        Total  Used    Free
hda    1024/64/63   2016M  9764M   -5000M

I can not seem to get any free space to install RedHat.
I tried using fdisk, but I get the following problem:

Partition 2 has different physical/logical beginning (non-Linux?)

phy(1023,0,1) logical(1024,0,1)

Partition 2 has different physical/logical ending (non-Linux?)

Phy(1023,63,63) logical (2547,63,63)

Partition 3 has different physical/logical beginning (non-Linux?)

phy(1023,0,1) logical(2548,0,1)

Partition 3 has different physical/logical ending (non-Linux?)

Phy(1023,63,63) logical (3563,63,63)

Any help would be great.  Thanks.
