I had a spare DOS partition lying around gathering dust and so I wanted to partition to linux's ext2. Thw first thing I did was to launch fdisk and delete the old partition (since I don't need those files). I then added the a linux one in place of it and tried to write to the table, but I receive the following error message: Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table. Syncing disks. Re-read table failed with error 16: Device or resource busy Reboot your system to ensure the partition table is updated. I have Debian booting from /dev/hda3 and the partition I am trying to make work is /dev/hda1. Does anyone have an idea of how to go about fixing it? I appreciate any help!
