Well, I have only one partition as / partition. There I have everything. What a did is from a windows partition create a new partition for linux. But obviously when I mount it as /usr nothing works because there is nothing saved there, so I don't know how to copy all the /usr files to this new partition and mount it as /usr. thanks Jose Daniel Secareanu wrote:
Well... you can at most free up some space on the hdd and create a new partition... I am not sure if you could actually increase the size of your / partition, but you could, for example, backup your /home partition (if you have one) and then delete it and recreate it with the new size (this also means the space on the hdd should be next to the /home partition, or else you will have to move partitions around the hdd)... In any case :) is not simple... Good luck!

Hi,
I am running out of space in my linux partition, so I went to the partitioner and from a windows partition I free some space for linux. However, how could I use now this space for linux, because it is there but linux doesn't use it. How could I tell linux that there is more space and that the programs could be saved there.
thanks
