[plug] Help

[Ulrich Suchalla]

Hallo everyone,
I am new to this mailing list, and of course start by asking you for help.
I am trying to install Linux Red Hat 0.9 on my machine. The installation disks came with the ' Australian Linux journal'.
My harddrive is 40 gig. Partitioned to 1 x 20 and 2x 10 gig.On the 20 gig. Partition I have windows me installed.
The other two partition are empty.
Every time I try to install Linux, and I come to the bit about partition, I select manual and partition 'E'.
When I click next, up comes a error message 

                     You have not defined a root partition (/), which is required for installation of Red Hat Linux to continue.

                     These errors must be corrected prior to continuing with your install of Red Hat Linux.

Since I am not an expert, can some one please give me some advice how to fix this problem.
Thanks,
                Ulrich
