Repartitioning harddisk
Hi folks.
I'm going to do some partitioning on a Debian(-Woody)-based system
(Skolelinux, norwegian). A 10GB harddrive has the following partitions
today:
cm-84:/home/erlend# fdisk -l /dev/hda
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1232 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 117 939771 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 118 1232 8956237+ f Win95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5 118 1141 8225248+ 8e Linux LVM
/dev/hda6 1142 1232 730926 83 Linux
cm-84:/home/erlend#
I'm going to clean this disk totally of data (of course with
backup)and repartition it. How can I make two (or more) partitions,
with no spare storage in extended partitions or logical volumes? And
with wich tool/program? I've checked out fdisk's man-pages, but I
didn't understand how to use it to do these operations.
Cheers, Vegard
