  • One CD-ROM drive (F:).
    Disk 1 - One 3 GB disk that contains the following:
    ?One active primary FAT32 partition (C:) running Windows 98.
    ?One extended partition enclosing one logical FAT partition (E:).



    Disk 2 - One 3 GB hard disk that contains the following:
    1. One 1,500 MB FAT32 primary partition (D:).
    2. 1,500 MB unpartitioned free space.



    For this scenario you want to create a 1,500 MB logical FAT partition on Disk 2.



    Steps
    1. Select Disk 2.
    2. Create a logical partition in the 1,500 MB free space using the following information:

    Option Action

    Partition type

    Select FAT
    Label (optional) Specify the label or name of the partition
    Size Accept the pre-calculated size that is specified

    The partition will be assigned drive F: after reboot. Also, an extended partition will automatically be created to enclose the logical partition.
    3. Apply the changes to your system.
