Inside fdisk.. do the following...

n (New Parition)
p (Primary)
1 (First Partition)
<enter> (Yes.. the partition starts at the beginning)
+300M (Make the partition 300MB in size)

n (Another new partition)
p (primary again)
2 (Second partition)
<enter> (Second partition starts at the end of the first one)
<enter> (Second partition ends at the end of the disk)

t (Change parition types)
2 (For partition 2)
82 (Set the type to linux swap)

w (Write data to disk and exit.)

Good Luck,

jim

Okay how do I go about partitioning my 340 meg microdrive.  I only have a
usb adapter and Mandrake won't see it.  I know I can use fdisk during the
install but haven't figured out how it works.  Any help would be
appreciated.
