Hardware RAID 10 server - reformat NTFS partition to ext3 and resize for Centos 5.5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Here's the situation. I have a dual boot machine - originally  had Red 
Hat and Windows 2000 Pro. The NTFS partition never did seem to 'get 
along' with the Adaptec 2400A caching RAID controller. Linux always 
seemed to like the I2O drivers. I went from RH Enterprise to now running 
Centos 5.5. Works great! I really don't want the 200 gigs worth of NTFS. 
Can't I just run GParted from a CD, reformat the NTFS and append the 
space to the existing Linux partition? What will I have to do with LVM 
to see the expanded partion? - anything special? I've never done this 
before - is it really much more complicated than I've outlined here? 
Please advise this old simpleton. Many thanks in advance.
