I'm having a problem after creating the install partition on my primary IDE channel on a P3 motherboard. Running the command "sfdisk --activate 1" The script throws the error "no such file or directory" and exits. I believe the sfdisk command requires you to specify the device and it seems like no device is specified. The only thing I'm doing strange is I'm using the quick install program installed on a hard drive off the secondary IDE channel because I can't find any blank DVDs to burn 0.9.4 Stock and it won't fit on a CD. I'm not sure if that's related to the problem or not.
