Hi !
I recently bought a Compaq Presario B1011 laptop with Windows XP Home Edition pre- installed. I want to use this machine with both Windows and Linux, so I installed SuSE 9.0. Everything went smoothly, except for some trouble with graphics and sound card and the win modem
. However, during the installation, yast told me that the partition used for SuSE could only be 4 GB or smaller, and that I should defragment my Windows partition. I continued with the installation, everything fine so far.
Yesterday, I used the yast partition manager to reduce the Win XP NTFS partition in order to create another LINUX partition. Worked without a glitch, according to yast, my NTFS partition now has 26 GB, while my two other partitions now have 11 GB between them.
However, after booting to Windows XP, I noticed, that, according to Windows, the NTFS partition only has 20 GB. Using df under SUSE and Knoppix shows the same, though the yast partition manager insists that I have 26 GB for Windows.
Where have these 6 GB gone, and how can I get them back (prefereably without re- installing everything !)
Thanks,
KhymMahn
