Your assessment of openSUSE 10.2 is somewhat discouraging. One would wonder why you even considered it, or was it just a *poor* choice of words? > So I installed 10.3 and at installation time I chose "New > Installation" believing this would wipe out the hard drive so erasing > 10.2 and store and install 10.3. In short, I wished to get rid of > 10.2. But apparently I did not achieve my goal. In fact 10.3 is now up > & running but if I click on the SuSE menu item "leave -> Start > Operating System" I get the following 3 choices: > > 1) Start 'openSuSE 10.3- 2.6.22.12-0.1' (current) > 2) Start 'Failsafe -- openSuSE 10.3 ....' > 3) Start 'openSuSE 10.2 - 2.6-18.8-0.7 (/dev/sda2)' > > It looks like 10.2 is still there and occupies a portion of my hard > drive. yes it does. > How can I get rid of 10.2 WITHOUT REINSTALLING 10.3 or damaging > anything already working on 10.3? open yast disk and reformat the partition containing openSUSE 10.2, sda2 then edit /boot/grub/grub.ment and delete the lines concerning 10.2 > I'd like all the available disk space to be devoted to 10.3. this *will* free the space occupied by 10.2, but will not devote it to any particular purpose. It will make the *partition* sda2 available for other use > Thank you in advance for your assistance and help - -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4-svn4472 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHN0UNClSjbQz1U5oRAinYAJoD2i7gNOA8Y8Q6//ukjECrYBoU4gCgk7iB FdIlsFu7IRpoULa6pvqew0o= =L7xb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
