Hi all,

Last night I tried to resize NTFS using SystemRescureCD (as found on this forum) but in vain. After I booted from the CD it stopped in the middle with an error - some segmentation fault.

Any Ideas?

We got now computer Sony Vaio P4 HT, 1GB ram 200GB HD etc. etc. It has WinXP (NTFS) installed on it and I want to install Linux (most probably RedHat 9.0 or Fedora) for my Thesis work.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.
Neelam

PS: I dont intend to spend money buying new s/w so I am looking for free s/w for partitioning like systemrescuecd!

SystemRescueCD is the way to go. I have used it before and loved it. Is NT/XP the only OS running on your system? If it isn't, can you boot to the other OS's? Try running some fsck on the drive if you can, but it doesn't sound good.

HTH
Mike.

Thanks Mike.

Well, thats Y I used SystemRescueCD but as I said its giving me error - segmentation fault and then just hangs up.

>NT/XP the only OS running on your system?
Yep.

Do you have any idea why does SystemRescueCD gives an error like segmentation fault? after it finishes identifying h/w devices.

Thanks,
Neelam
