You should first resize the partition in the partition table (using fdisk, delete then re-create the partition, change its type to "7" (NTFS)), have you done that? After that is done, ntfsresize will by default automatically resize the file system to occupy the entire partition (see the bottom of the output from running "ntfsresize" without arguments). --Amos -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
