    Hi I have installed WinXP on my AAO I want to install Linpus back onto it using the restore disk. I have made a usb recovery. When i go to install Linpus back on i only have to option to install it onto my whole disk not onto any other partition that i make.

    I am using the 1GIG 120GIG model.

    This has been answered before, but since such answers are difficult to find, I'll answer it again. That is correct; when you restore from the Linpus backup, it restores your disk to it's pristine state.

    There are Linpus images out there that you can restore to a 4GB (or larger) ext2 partition. Search the forums
