DISK DRUID DON'T RECOGNIZE

Hi, I have been installing Red Hat 7.0 on Windows 2000 Server. I have 9 partitions formatted with FAT & NTFS. Windows 2000 is installed on NTFS on C drive. While I have formatted G & H as FAT with full free space. While I use Disk Druid to create Linux Native on G & Linux Swap on H, it says you don't have any free space. Y it happens when I have nothing in G & H? Does Linux don't recognize FAT partitions?

Suggestion:
Because the partitions are already formatted it may be regarding them as occupied. Try deleting the partitions, let it find the free space and allocate it to Linux then.
