Installing DOS 5.0 on an exitsting empty partition
I have a 15 gig partition on the hd I use with RH that I could empty to fill with a win 98 partition (or back up my windows 98 drive). The ideal solution would be to 1) Backup my windows 98 disk onto the empty partition on the RH disk. 2) Install the new mb. Install only the RH 9 hd. 3) Make sure RH runs witht he

How can I delete an empty partition?
You're correct in that G is completely empty because I didn't understand the thought process of creating dummy folders (winnt\system32) and copying the userinit.exe on an empty partition (when it already exists in F:\winnt\system32).

Empty Partition
It does have what I would call a bug, in that, if there is in a one gig partition, for example, less than 125 empty MB, or less if one is lucky (For me if I had 75 empty MB it worked), Strangely enough, when I had this problem, I could create an empty partition right next to the full one and then merge the two.

(2) If I boot from the MacOS 9.2.1 install CD, it just totally does not see either partition on the hard drive, making the installation impossible.
