I think the mount command might get what you want. If not, maybe dh. I've
used a system set up with LVM a little, but not enough to remember
precisely.

what's my best best to make this happen? fips?fdisk?
disk druid? something on the fedora install disks?
None of the above unless you have some unpartitioned room on the disk in
question.
AFAIK fips is for FAT partitions (msdos)
fdisk is only for creating new (when there is room) and delet

Questions.
Hi, S.:
The output of 'df' might be more meaningful.
If you mounted sda7 as /
and mounted sda1 as /boot
Would it satisfy all your free space concerns?

Anshu,
Are you doing okay with Linux fdisk in your partitioning?
I could have mentioned that there are at least two parts
to what you will be doing.
First, you will be using fdisk to set up your partitions.
Linux boot and root partitions will be made native Linux
(ext2) file systems. The swap pa

HI All!
Please remember to start a new threat when the topic changes, especially as if
the new topic is so dramtically different as in this case. For those of us
who use threadable mail readers, it is really annoying to have topics mixed
