Maybe you just repartitioned and missed the fdisk message about the fact that the new partition table will be active at next reboot. It happens if some other partitions on the disk are in use. In that case 38GiB is the size of the old /dev/sdb7. Be careful. Use "cat /proc/partitions" to display how the disk is seen by the system in this moment. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
