help partitioning a RAID 0
I've got (2) quantum 40GB HDs that I have set up in a RAID 0 array, and need to blank them and start over...
I have so far deleted all partitions (using win98 fdisk), but when I went to repartition them, it reads the disk (available space) as only 10GB. I know I've kicked out all logical drives, extended partitions and primaries etc, and I seem to recall from the last time I did this (a couple years ago) that the win98 fdisk doesn't recognize large HDs. Am I remembering correctly? What is the solution here? Is there an updated fdisk that I can use to parition, or another program all togther? Also, is there a faster way to get to a DOS prompt than to start win98 setup and then quit at first opportunity? Any help would be much appreciated.

figured it out, there is a windows ME boot disk out there with fdisk that supports drives larger than 64GB... all is happy now
