So this is the most effective way of shrinking. When I was first migrating linux onto M$ boxn my little mantra was defrag, dump, resize, restore. Didn't always work the magic correctly tho. :-( I never tried to shrink windows more than 50%, so I can't say for certain how much a fat partition may be shrunk. On the bright side, I realized I could usually clone the drive, switch jumpers to the new master and tool my way around. I use to lug two or three drives around with me for such times. --- Talk Mailing List [email protected] https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk Russell Sent from mobile.
