I was finally going to get rid of Windows on this netbook. Though I could probably make another swap partition in the right place and then delete the other and merge /home with the old swap and the empty space it leaves isolated... what a pain in the *$#! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
