Hi all,
  I am trying to partition my hard drive using FIPS and I get the following
error --

Error: Last cylinder is not free

Since the new partition is created at the end of the old one and
contains at least one cylinder, the partition can not be split if
not at least the very last cylinder is completely free.
Probably there is a hidden file like 'image.idx' or 'mirorsav.fil'
in the last cylinder - see the doc.


I dont have any hidden file *.idx or *.fil. Any one been there?

For the Gurus here is the log of FIPS.
