Re: [SLE] How to know physical hard disk usage?

Hi from Adam. Well, you use ext2 and you have the closest to NTFS. I am now so used to ReiserFS that I enjoy the quick DiskScan during periodic boots. You know you gotta let it go. I did with SuSe 9.2 and I haven't gone back. I hate it when I have to do firmwire updates that I have to run XP BUT now I occasionally do that now. Out of two laptops and one desktop, two are SUSE one is legacy XP and I boot it once a year for the occasional minor chore. It also helps to run with the biggest disk you can afford (on mine, 2 80Gig laptop drives) and a few old ones I keep the backups in USB enclosures. -----Original Message----- From: Sid Boyce Subj: Re: [SLE] How to know physical hard disk usage?

One question: why do you want to know this?

I need to know which sectors of a partition are occupied with data and which not, like the display on Windows defragmenters. How to do this? (SUSE 9.3 and 10 RC 1)
