YOu need to run fdisk, and re-partition the drive (join both boots into one!). Then provision the drive for the OS, then load the OS!

Fdisk is a utility used for this type of work. I cannot (under these circumstances, like all different possible situations) explain how to use it. I am not going to take the liability of writing down instructions on how to mangle your partition. If you do not know how to use fdisk, take your machine to a qualified technician. You do understand that there is no going back once fdisk is run, and if you miss a step, you are left with nothing, AND I am not prepared to write out every different instruction.

We are volunteers that can help you with certain things, but fdisk isn't one that I am willing to teach!

Have fun!

Thank you, Sir.

It isn't called "F" disk on accident. It will "F" your disk up!

By "F", I am pretty sure, knowing you classy people in Dixie Land, that you mean fussy fuss and not a four letter work ending with a k which means intercourse. Correct? I would hate to get my disk fussy fussed.

Have fun

Yes, that comes along with "discharge of the ball". Do you remember when the "Mouse" had a ball? And before you could disassemble them, you had to discharge the ball! Man, that step always cracked me up! Oh, the good 'ole days!
