SUSE 10 and resizing the partition
I have just installed SUSE 10 in the flavour of Super Slick and when I came to install some programs Yast is telling me that the disk space is full.
I tried to resize the partition by booting from SUSE disk etc and this is the reading I am getting; Dev/hdb 111.7 GB ST3120022A start 0 end 14592 hdb1 1011.8 Linux swap 0 128 hdb2 110.7 GB Extended 129 14592 hdb5 1011.8 Linux swap mounted 129 257 hdb6 109.8 GB Linux Native 258 14592 I have two Hard disks installed. Disk 1 is running Windows XP and the info. above is for disk 2. As far as I can see there is no lack of space. I am totally lost. Could anyone advise me as to what is happening and if I do need to create more space, how I can go about this. Thank for any help offered. Steve |
Partitions must be unmounted to repartition. All partitions have root as the owner and only root can unmount. If your system booted to level 5, all petitions used by SuSE will have been mounted.

Angry SUSE 10 and resizing the partition
I have tried to resize the Partition to make more room for SUSE by using the original install disk but I still am unable to change the size.
Could anyone advise me how to do this? Thanks, Steve |
Perhaps booting to only level 3 will put you in a better position but you will be working at the command line. I did manage to resize a partition with the install disk but don't remember the details. I do remember it took quite a bid of fiddling around to get it done.
