Mandrake 7.2 Partioning

[Luigi04]

I am attempting to install Mandrake 7.2 on a windows 98 computer and have defraged the hard drive several times so as to prepare for re partioning the drive but when I attempt to install it tells me that the drive is to fragmented and I need to defrag it.

I'm not familiar with Mandrake or the install.

Is there a expert install mode. They usually have the capability to partition your drive before the Linux install.

Otherwise you can use Partition Magic to do this prior to the install.
