Don't get it, I just made 60GB of free space, where did it go?
This seems to be missing from the howto there, so here goes. Resizing the filesystem only changes the filesystem size, it doesn't change the partition size. The partition just has a spot at the end that isn't being used by the filesystem. What you need to do is delete the partition, then make a new partition, starting at the exact same block and with the same size as you just resized the filesystem to (I would make it a touch bigger to avoid problems). This will free up space behind that partition in the partition table for you to add your windows partition. -- Calvin Walton -- [email protected] mailing list
