You should use the M$ disk management to defrag & resize M$ partitions. You will have less problems that way. Then you can use 'cfdisk', 'fdisk' or even 'parted' to setup needed partitions.


If you do a LQ

I suggest that you look at 'How to Ask Questions the Smart Way' so in the future your queries provide information that will aid us in diagnosis of the problem or queries.

2 Rute Tutorial & Exposition
3 Linux Command Guide
4 Bash Beginners Guide
5 Bash Reference Manual
6 Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide
7 Linux Newbie Admin Guide
