Hello,

I have added an 80G drive to my 4.6-S system and was following the
directions in the Handbook (Section 12.3.1) which says (basically)
in sysinstall, use fdisk, select A for all, and then 'w' for write, and
then 'q'.

However, when I hit 'w', I get the following warning:

    "... If you're adding a disk, you should NOT write 
     from this screen..."


Which is correct?  And if the warning is to be heeded, should I just
quit?  Thanks for any assistance.

ss
