I juggled partitions and resized my / partition to cover a larger area of the disk. However, after I did it, I get inconsistencies. According to t he YaST partitioner and according to fdisk, the resize did happen. According to 'df' it did not. Here is my output of fdisk: Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80000000000 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9726 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1 4 32098+ de Dell Utility /dev/hda2 5 9516 76405140 83 Linux /dev/hda3 9517 9726 1686825 82 Linux swap And here is what df says: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda2 17362216 13564696 2915552 83% / tmpfs 254048 8 254040 1% /dev/shm The df command is only seeing 18 gigs instead of 73 gigs! So is this a df poblem or did the resize not work?
