sorry duplicate post disregard
 

hello,
I've tried getting an answer to this ? b4 but got no response. I have a dual boot Mandrake/windows setup. recently my / partion has run out of room. I took about 500mb from my windows d: drive which nows shows up as empty in Mandrake Control Center Mount Points section. when I boot into mandrakemove and choose my unmounted "/" the resize button is there but when I click on it the slide button is maxed out 2 the right and I cant reuse the empty space for root the partitiion. is there something I have to do to the empty space for it to be recognized? or can someone tell me how to reclaim this empty space for my root partition.

thanx,
alan
