[ale] Mandrake 10.0. was, Dual Boot WinXP Pro + Fedora Core 1

[Nathan J. Underwood]

Well,  I've got my dual-boot box up and running (3 partitions, linux, 
doze, and data), but I'm going to do it over again to see if I can 
figure out what went wrong.  But, in the meantime, feel free to take a 
stab at this.  It would *only* install if the partition available was 
 >=25G.  I resized, retried, resized, retried (the error I kept getting 
was regarding insufficient disk size, so this made sense at the time), 
and 25GB seemed to be the magic number.  I even formatted the drive and 
started the process over again (I've now built a dual-boot box 3 times, 
I'm starting to get proficient at it B-) ) thinking maybe I'd done 
something wrong earlier.  Any idea why it wouldn't install on a 10G 
partition?
