Opps, forgot about that one. Try running "depmod -a" to update the modules
dependency.

Uhm... Can't help you here. The last I heard, this could be done with FIPS, but
it only works with DOS partitions. You could also try; Backup partition 1,
Delete partition 1, Combine partition 1 and 2 into one partition, Create a
filesystem on combined partition, Restore data.

It's a pretty pathetic way of doing things, and someone else may have a better
idea. I haven't been partitioning any hard disks for quite a while now, so my
information may be a little outdated.
