I bought SuSE 7.1 Personal several months ago, so my help has expired. When I installed it then, it installed fine. Recently I tried to isntall it again, because I wiped it before to put in windows 2000. After going through the installation screens, it tries to partition my partitions. But it always has an error partitioning /dev/hda2, the swap drive. It the goes to 66% done and freezes. When I turn of the computer, and try again, it doesnt detect a hard disk, and to only way it will is to reformat my drive using window 95 boot disk. I have tried 4 times. 2 questions:

Does anyone know what the problem might be?

Is there any way to quit out of YaST 2 and isntall through YaST?
