CeRbErO 0 Posted July 21, 2001 Hey, I need some help with my partitions... I need to change the order of the partitions, and not only for Win2k, but really change it... I have one 40gb disk, with 2 partitions on it, one 15gb © and one 25 (E), plus a 30gb disk, with just one partition on it (D). That's my problem... The first disk puts it second partition as E, and not D, as I want it to be. This causes a real problem for me, since I can't install the XP beta that my dad recieved correctly. When I run the XP setup from a dos boot floppy, it can't copy the files correcly, and when I started the setup from win2k, after it rebooted and continued the setup, it ****ed up my entire Win2k installation, I couldn't repair it or anything. So please help me with this, thanks. Share this post Link to post
Intlharvester 0 Posted July 22, 2001 If the second partition on the first disk (hd0b) is extended, make it a primary partition to get it detected as D:. (Although, I can't say why an extended partition would break the install.) You should be able to this from the 2000 installer, if not from XP. Share this post Link to post
