Correct. Drive c: (/dev/hda) only 1 partition, and it's primary. That's what FIPs is about. It tells you to scandisk and defrag the c: drive. Hopefully at this point there is a lot of unused space on the drive and no unmoveable win/dos files exist in the "shall we say 2nd half of the drive". Then you start fips from dos. Then it basically offers to split the partition in to 2 fat partitions. The size choice being yours.
IF this all works correctly, (pray) You wind up with a smaller c: drive and another fat partition. In
theory this second partition doesn't mean anything, and can be deleted. A new linux set of partitions is created to hold the redhat file systems in this area. So you wind up with 2 OSes on 1 hard disk. There should be a dosutils directory on the first disk with fips and all the
Big Bold Warnings and disclaimers in the fips read me files.
The other option is you use disk druid to delete the partition that hold the "c" drive that you no longer want, YES
complete destruction of data, nothing saved. Remember there is the possibility that fips won't work and you lose all the data on "c" anyhow. Also if you haven't tried it yet, you can have windows up and put that rh disk in the drive and read the text files that describe this as well as the other 'read me ' files on the disk
