Hi,

did anybody else experience this: When trying to shrink an NTFS 
partition with the SUSE installer, I just get the error 
"Systemfehlercode -3027" (most probably "system error code -3027" in 
English) and the installer starts over again witout ever reaching an end.

Strange enough, booting with the GParted-CD allows shrinking without any 
problems. Isn't the installer also using gparted?

I'm not the only one, see (German): 
http://www.linux-club.de/ftopic62059-0-asc-0.html

Another guy in this thread also tried Knoppix' gpart without success.

This was on a new, defragmented Dell Notebook with a 90GB serial ata 
disk. It has a small FAT partition with Dell tools as /dev/sda1, the 
rest a big NTFS partition.

Ciao
Siegbert
