Getting back hdd space
Hi all,
I installed Slackware 9.1 last night and was forced to use fdisk to partition my 2 36gig SCSI drives. I only repartitioned the 2nd drive. I created a 10 gig primary partition and ~26gig extented. My question is, how do I create logical drives within that extented partition? At this point slack doesn't see the extented partition so the space is essentially "lost". I'd like to create a couple logical drives within that extented partition but I don't know how. If someone could tell me how to do this, I'd appreciate it. TIA. |

Floppyman, have you tried fdisk -n /dev/sd?

Well I got them formatted as ext2, converted them to ext3 and mounted the partitions. Everything seems to be working fine. Thanks again for your help.
