I would say, that since you have already lost everything, i would say either try booting from a boot disk, and then repartition your drive. Also, when you insert a boot cdrom or floppy like the rh boot disk, during the installation choose to repartition your drive. I hope this helps. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Original Message <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< On 3/31/00, 9:52:02 PM, "Mr.& Mrs Jewell" <joools@erols.com> wrote regarding help: > Hello, I have made a huge mistake and need help.
