Thus the entire hd capacity is about 300GB, but the installer was unable to create a partition, that was bigger than some mbytes. The cd is not an official disk, I created this, but I could install it on my machine (without raid). The kernel was a simple GENERIC kernel. Please help me, I'm very afraid of this issue, because I must administer this server and it must be okay in two weeks. Thanx, Merry XMas, Gabor Kovesdan
