Hello, Last night I was looking to create a usr partition using diskdrake under Mandrake Control Center...Then I could not understand why I have a mnt hda5 partition called win_d (it shows /r on the file system.
So I went to see my storage devices and there I found this:
Device Type Size MountP Free Full% /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part8 ? 6,3GB /home 5,7GB 9,8% /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part6 ? 5,8GB / 4,2GB 27% /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5 ? 512,2MB/mnt/win_d 4,2GB 0,2% /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 ? 14,6GB / mnt/ win_c 4,2GB 25,3% /dev/hda8 ext3 N/A/home 0B N/A /dev/hda6 ext2 N/A/ 0B N/A /dev/hda5 vfat N/A/ mnt/win_d 0B N/A /dev/hda1 vfat N/A/ mnt/win_c 0B N/A
1/ The 4 last devices are not mounted when I click on it. So what is this?
2/ There is no such D drive on my win partition. I have one big 14,6 GB for windows. Where does it come from??
3/ By the way is the root partition not too big with 5,8 GB and only 27% used? There is a lot of free space and I will not install a lot of new softs.
4/I would like to shrink my windows drive (starting slowly to remove XP) is there any trick to do it or can I unmount and resize it in the control center with no risk?
Thanks for your help Christophe ps: it is snowing here...a good day for snowboarding again ;-)
