Above is precisely the actual setup. But the FREE 10 GB cannot be reached with the partitioner of Yast. Which partitioning tool would format this free partition? Suggestions please. fdisk or similar? The linux parts are formatted as Ext 4 but it would be okay to use Ext 3.
This Windows 7 setup has not complained and plays well with the reduction of its reduction.
I used a Linux Rescue CD and, IIRC, the tool was GParted. However, you still won't be able to resize the extended partition. You'll have to backup (always a good idea) the partitions, then remove and recreate the extended partitions and then restore the partitions. Incidentally, I generally start with a full disk image backup, and then back up the partitions individually. Depending on the partition, I may backup the entire partition to a file. With others, just use cp -a to copy all the contents of a partition to a temporary directory. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
