[KLUG Members] win98 to kubuntu to win98

[Mark Bystry]

i was little confused last night because the laptop that i'm working on is an older compaq armada 
100s and it has 250mb primary partition and a the rest is on an ext. partition. this is standard 
practice on most compaqs. i tried getting rid of the 250mb restore partition completely and couldn't.
