To be exact, I have an 80G disk partitioned like so: hda1 70G vfat, hda4 extended partition: hda5 9.6G ext3, hda6 400M swap. Now I successfully shrunk hda1 to 65G, resized the extended partition to the maximum size (now around 15 G), and I want to create another Linux partition, but I dont know what I have to do, when the number of the root partition changes. That is why I tried to move the free space from the beginning of the extended partition to the end of at least the ext3 partition, so the number doesnt change in the case of the root partition of my system. -- MP ---------------------------- Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://jdoom.uw.hu/ "I will make him an offer, he can't refuse." -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
