Thanks JC ... I use System Commander Deluxe for a boot manager. Not a magic wand ... but I had no trouble installing RedHat Linux. Would Partition Commander help? v-com.com Would Partition Magic help? jpeters.com Best of luck.

If your computer will boot from the CDROM (check your BIOS), then you should be able to insert a Debian CD, jump to the section for partitioning the hard drive, then delete each partition and re-install partitions as desired. The MBR will be overwritten (at your request) with a new one once the install has taken place. There is also a Free partitioning program called the Ranish Partition Manager. It works from DOS. users.intercom.com
