[Eug-lug] hello... anybody in there?

[B. Gallagher]

I loaded XP on 1/3 of a 120 GB HDD; then loaded FC 6 on 1/3 (a 100 MB 
boot and the rest root.)  I setup NTFS on the remaining 1/3, using XP, 
and I was using it to do some Ogg to MP3 conversion for my new Sansa 
e280.  Now that 's finished and I want to re-partition to FAT32.  XP 
can't do that from inside Disk Management.

Hey, I 'm just shooting the breeze.  I'll work it out.  I'm loving my 
new MP3 player, though!
