Hi, I have one 40GB drive and this is where I have my FC5 installed. Besides, I have another drive 30GB drive, which I partitioned into 20GB(movies) and 10GB(mp3) vfat (FAT32) filesystem. It is almost full. Obviously the reason for VFAT is so that I can use it with Windows machine but I want to change the file system of this drive to ext3 and merge them into one partition (single drive single partition) to use it solely with my FC5. ==================== 20GB + 10GB = 30GB single drive and (ext3 file system) ==================== I know backing up is the good practice but I have no extra drive to backup my files. So may be I need to change this first two drive into ext3 and then merge them together. is it possible what I am thinking of??? by the way from the previous post I was able to figure out that there is partitioning tools like parted, Gparted and QTparted. I had installed these but I am lost. Gparted shows my drives but no menu is active (do I need to unmount the drive first??) QTparted shows my drives and only format drive is active. If its possible, can somebody guide me how to accomplish this??? Thanks! -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
