wanna know i'm seeing this clearly before i wreak havoc :)ha
use of parted:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
here's my disk geo:
Using /dev/hda
Warning: The operating system thinks the geometry on /dev/hda is
1653/255/63. You should check that this matches the BIOS geometry
before using this program.
(parted) print
Disk geometry for /dev/hda: 0-12970.6 megabytes
Minor Start End Type Filesystem Flags
1 0.0 1004.1 primary FAT boot
3 1027.6 4541.8 primary ext2
4 4541.8 12966.5 extended
5 4541.8 6542.1 logical FAT
6 6542.1 8542.4 logical FAT
7 8542.4 10542.7 logical FAT
8 10542.7 10676.0 logical linux-swap
(parted)
( no idea what happened to 10676.1-12966.4? ..maybe i messed up when i
initially redid windows/linux ? which hopefully means I"m missing out on
nearly 2GIG..)
so i want to remove Minor 7 to gain space for linux primary at Minor 3
so I do :
(difference of 10542.7-8542.4=1999.7 *although supposed to be a little
over 2GIG?*,--then add in difference to end of Minor 3 )
(parted) rm 7
(parted) resize 3 1027.6 6541.5 ( because in ext2 the start must remain
just that )
then update fstab...
and whala right?
thanks
lee
