Hello,
Because of the problem I had when my /boot partition changes from /dev/hda5 to
/dev/hda6 when a new windows fat32 partition is created, I then created a new
partition using Redhat.
This partition became /dev/hda13 and my /boot remained on /dev/hda5. I
formatted this partition in fat32 and Redhat sees it.
However, my windows doesn't see it. From Disk Management, it sees the file-type
as FAT32 but it sees it as healthy and unknown instead of healthy and system.
Does anyone has a clue on how to go about this? Or is there a way to format a
drive that my computer doesn't display in windows?
Thank you.
