[no subject]

Ok, first effort down.  Then, tried to run the red hat 8 (and the fedora
core 1, after 8 failed) install cd to force the "upgrade" to install grub,
but for each cd, it craps out after selecting Upgrade and then "Customize
packages to be installed" with "error enabling swap device hda3: No such
device. This most likely means this swap partition has not been
initialized".  Note: hda is the XP drive, hdb is the linux drive I'm
introducing.  I tried dropping to the command line before reaching that
point and "swapon /dev/hdb3" (hdb3 is my swap on the linux drive), and
although this indeed enables the swap, both installs still crap out trying
to swapon hda3.

Anyone know what I might do to get this going?  If not, anyone know where
the Red Hat install stores swap drive info (so I might edit it before it
reaches this point).

Thanks, as always.
John
