Hello everybody! before completely trashing out my hard disk I'd like to expose what I'm planning to do hoping to get some expert advice from you...
The first operating system I installed on the PC was Solaris 10 and then SuSE 10. So it's Solaris's GRUB which first shows up... SuSE 10 is pre-selected to it jumps to SuSE's GRUB (maybe there are better ways to do it but that's how the installation process did it) and, as expected (and desired), SuSE 10 boots up. Now I see myself wasting around 125 GB with the Solaris installation, which I don't use at home (enough of that at work). So I decided to get rid of it and recover some space. By now I can come up with 3 approaches (common option for all: backup of sensitive data before proceeding): * Option 1: - use cfdisk to change the boot-partition after that, I'd make a new filesystem on the old Solaris partition * Option 2: - use cfdisk to free up the Solaris partition and create a new Linux one - use parted to move the SuSE partition to the newly created * Option 3: - reinstall the whole system from scratch and use the whole hard disk this time I'd like to avoid the 3rd option as there are a lot of utils already installed and a lot of customization should be done. So... what way would you advice me to achieve this task without shooting myself in the foot? :-) TIA and regards, Martin ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
