Dear, as far as I'm concerned, there is no LiveCD of RH9 available yet.
I'm afraid we have to be satisfied with the normal RH9.
RH9 support has been officially discontinued by red hat inc.
Cheers!

The PC BIOS have not translated the h/c/s table to right type for the 80Gb hdd the partition magic to reading the HDD setting from BIOS.

Check the BIOS HDD setting.

If the BIOS auto-detect the HDD size 66GB instead of 80GB then any partition management software recognised 66GB size. Since HDD carry warranty of 1y to 3yr, get a replcement HDD via a warranty claim but that process takes some time (maybe weeks or months depend of vendors/reseller).

Maxtor may have a diagnostic software PowerMAX for HDD avaliable on the website. Read the instruction on running this software (very important).

thumbup.gif thumbup.gif the PowerMax works.

i use the PowerMax to run low level full format to get back my 20gb but strange.

what is strange is, after i format my hdd, i using fdisk to make partition, that time still detect my hdd size is 60gb, then i make 50gb for window xp and 10gb for linux, yesterday i finish intall window xp and this morning, i install red hat. when i install red hat, it detected my total hdd is 80gb blink.gif

then, the 10gb that i reserved for installing red hat become 30gb already blink.gif

that 20gb suddenly came out of no whr biggrin.gif

that really strange. but lucky i got back my 20gb thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Thank you for all suggest the solution to me. Thanks a lot.

Cheers.
