Hello -

I am a complete Linux beginner but know Unix and DOS fairly well as
a user.  I want to install Linux (SLS) on my IBM Laptop.

Here's the problem.  I boot Linux from my b: drive and everything
looks great - except it doesn't say anything about my hard drive.
When I run fdisk, I get the message:
         "unable to open /dev/hda"

I apologize if this question is stupid - I checked the FAQ's and
couldn't find the answer.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
