[QUOTE="briona, post: 155957"] Thank you for your help! This Mac was a bussiness Mac that is now being given to an employee. I was deleting and recreating the partion because I didn't know the password to get in, and I also wanted to make sure that all sensitive data was erased. Fdisk deleted the partion, but now I can't get the Mac to do anything with the disk. When I boot the the CD and try to modify the partions from the installer, it hangs up saying that it can't dismount the drive, but it shouldn't be mounted in the first place. [/QUOTE]
