Hi everybody,

I'd like to install Fedora Core 1 on my brand new T41. The
following partition table is shown by qtparted from knoppix:

   /dev/hda1	 ntfs	  27.12GB
   /dev/hda2	 fat32	   6.78GB
   /dev/hda-1	 free	   3.35GB

What is /dev/hda2? I've installed/run IBM Rapid Restore
Ultra. Am I correct to say that /dev/hda2 was created by the
program?

Can I delete it to get more free space for linux? Then I'll
shrink the WinXP partition. Can I still use IBM RRU from the
shrunken WinXP partition? I guess then the program will
create a new /hda/dev2 for IBM RRU?

Thanks in advance,
Tomomi
