Re: removing RAID 1 from a RH 7.1 box

[Trevor Morrison <trevor@hailix.com>]

Thanks for the info, but I have a problem of when I fdisk /dev/sda1 and go
to print the table nothing shows up, so I cannot change the partition type.
I can easily change the swap partition type.  The entire disk is mounted
under /dev/md0.  What am I doing wrong? Note:  I have also tried to so this
same procedure by booting into linux single and also from the RH 9 rescue
mode.  I still get the same result.

Thanks again,

Trevor
