Thanks guys for all your help, I managed to clean my computer of everything 
and am going to start over again.

The problem I had last time was that I only had one DOS partition on my 
computer and I accidently used:

fdisk /dev/hda

which I think deleted all the files needed for installation from C:\baslin.

So now I want to know if I was to do fdisk with DOS again, how should I do 
the partitions if I want:

- 5MB DOS partition
- 25MB Linux Partition
- 10MB Linux Swap (+4MB Physical RAM)

So if I was in fdisk with DOS should I make:

1 Primary Partition and what else?

and then in BL, what should I do with fdisk again?

fdisk /dev/hdb? or something else


Thanks a lot guys

Well I'm trying to learn a bit of C programming at the moment and I have a 
spare 386 computer with 4MB RAM, I can't really do anything else with it so 
I thought I'll give Linux a go and hopefully in the process learn a bit more 
about it.
