Interesting as I used DD in manual mode and it did exactly what I told 
it to.  I wanted a 1.5 GB partition and it created it where I wanted it too.

If you want FDISK, boot using linux text from the installation line.

So am I.  What's the point?  I also am a System Admin by day and live 
with Linux at night.  BTW, FC3 is a BETA.  You are testing software for 
Red Hat, and that is a fact.  I would NEVER run a production system on 
FC.  That is why I state that I "play" with Linux.  If I wanted a 
"solid" release, I would be looking at RHEL, not Fedora.
