GParted problems
I'm trying to use GParted to partition my HDD... problem is it won't let me use the "manage flags" option correctly. I can select "root" or "swap", but when I click "boot" it won't select it.

Any ideas? I can't get puppy to recognize any partitions

Open Terminal in GParted and execute fdisk -l command. Post device names ( /dev/sda1, sda2 etc. ) of all partitions.
