At this point I am slowly getting lost, I think you'll have to resize it when it's not mounted. for example, boot from a floppy linux, or if you have another linux installed on your hard drive, boot into that.. below are 2 quotes from the parted manual. http://www.gnu.org/manual/parted-1.6.1/html_chapter/parted_5.html "Parted can't resize mounted partitions (this may change in the future..." "If you want to resize your root or boot partition, use a boot disk See section 1.6 Using a Parted Boot Disk, or use Andreas Dilger's online ext2 resizer, included in the ext2resize package section" ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
