That was mentioned in my reply: "Then shrink the partition in the partition table." You can use fdisk or any other partition table editor for this. Some don't support resizing a partition. In that case, you can delete and create a smaller one. If doing the delete/create dance, you *must* create the new partition on the same cylinder boundary as the current one to preserve the current data. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
