Linux Setup Floppy Disc

[Bantamess]

Thanks for your answer Alexey,
Excuse my ignorance, I have never tried to do anything like this before!
I have managed to run fdisk and type fdisk/dev/hda but get: no such file or
directory.
Can you tell me where I am going wrong?
Thanks and regards
Janet

You can use Linux installation CD-ROMs. Boot from CD-ROM and run the 
installation in the
rescue mode. When the installation program will switch to command prompt 
use `fdisk` command which should be present on the
installation CD-ROM (you will need only the first CD-ROM from the
installation set).
Or, if you have a working copy of Linux on the machine on which you need
to delete partitions, you can run inslalled Linux and use fdisk which is
installed as part of Linux on that machine.
