My dual-installs of SuSE have all ended up with the Windows partition mounted somewhere in the linux directory tree. I think /windows/C but I'm not positive. In any case, `mount` should show you if there's an NTFS or FAT partition mounted under /windows when you're booted into SuSE. If not, take a look at fdisk -- `man fdisk` will give you usage info. That'll let you get a listing of the partitions on the drive. Once you've got the Windows partition (/dev/hda#, most likely) you can use mkreiserfs to format the partition, mount it as /data (`mount -t reiser /dev/hda# /data`) and then fix the fstab file... -----Original Message----- From: Trey Sizemore [mailto:trey@fastmail.fm] Sent: Wednesday, July 27, 2005 2:54 PM To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: [SLE] Reclaiming Windows partition for SUSE I've got a laptop with a 60GB drive divided 50/50 between SUSE 9.3 and WinXP. I'd like to reclaim the the 30GB WinXP partition and use the 60GB drive exclusively for SUSE (making a 30GB /data partition). What would be the easiest way to do this? I've got Partiion Magic 7 with which I thought I might nuke the WinXP partition. Or is doing this in Linux better. The current SUSE partitions are ReiserFS so I thought I'd do the same with this new partition. I have a ton of data on the SUSE side and I could backup and do a complete reinstall, but this would be a last resort. Thanks for tips. -- Cheers, Trey ---- The right to revolt has sources deep in our history. -- Supreme Court Justice William O.
