Are you sure that you DID create a Linux partition?
Pls double check w. Linux fdisk.
Also, as I recall, after you create a new partition, you need to change
the partition to Linu xnative 81 or 80 I forgot
Of course, you have to SAVE the changed partition info.

: I've found it impossible to setup a slackware CD rom linux on my pc. I've
: tried every combination of boot and root disk provided. I tried installing it
: on a dos partition and in its own partition, without success. The boot floppy
: usually runs ok, but the setup program usually gives a message that native
: linux partitions are not present, even when I created linux partitions on the
: hard disk. I tried both my C drive and the D drive.
: MSDOS and Windows have no problems recognizing the hard disks.
: I'm brand new to Linux and I suspect I'm missing something very simple and
: basic. I'd appreciate any help.
: Thanks,
