During the installations the system asked me for a blank disk to make a boot disk.

How can I put the Fdisk or Druid in this disk, boot from this disk and use the Fdisk from the diskett??

Thanks a lot.

Just do your initial partitioning during the install and make the normal boot disk during the install as well. Once the install is complete, you can copy the fdisk program (/sbin/fdisk) to the boot floppy separately.
