Dear friends, I was having a P-III machine with 20 GB harddisk having two partitions of 10 GB each. I wanted to install PCQuest Linux on it. So i repartitioned the hard disk into two partitions of 7 GB and 13 GB using FIPS. Then i removed the 13 GB partition and installed Linux with the following memory assignments: root - 4 GB, swap - 256 MB. Specifically I did not use the option of "Use remaining space for root partition".
The linux is working perfectly fine. However, now when i try to restore the remaining 8.5 GB (20 - 7 - 4.5) of my hard disk, the system fails. It says that the extended DOS partition exists but is not showing it. Is this hard disk space lost? Is there any way i can recover it without uninstalling Linux? Pl. help.
