I've got a small problem. I haven't completely given up on Windows (unfortunately) because I can't find a total video editing/dvd burning solution for Linux. Anyway, I have a partition that I've formatted as fat32. It's about 52 GB. However, I couldn't access the partition in Linux, except as root. No matter what I did. So...in my wisdom, I thought that if I got it below 32 GB, it would act normally. I resized it and everything was fine. I tried to format and mount the remaining 20 GB, but no go. Wouldn't mount. So I resized the 32 GB partition back to 52 GB. It mounts, but shows up as 32 GB. Also, I tried to give it a different mount point in there somewhere. Diskdrake says 52, everything else 32. Plus, I now have another partition that is 20 GB that doesn't even exist, but shows up in xffm, konqueror, whatever. The good news is that after all this jacking around, I was able to set the permissions on the 32/52 partition so that I can access it in Linux.
To summarize, I have two 32 GB partitions, a 20 GB partition, all in a 52 GB partition. Help! Where is the configuration info kept? (I checked and made sure fstab was correct) Do I need to wipe the entire hard drive and start over? Linus
