Hey everyone, |

I have recently moved, and resized the partitions on my 120GB hdd |
4 |
(/dev/hdb). I moved and resized the partitions as there is data i very |
5 |
much want to keep, but dont have hard disk space elese where to back it up |
6 |
during a compleat re-write of the drive. |
7 |
|
8 |
The process was going well, and everything i wanted was on my new reiserfs |
9 |
partition (/dev/hdb1). I had deleated some stuff that i no longer needed |
10 |
or wanted during the process and so i checked to see how much space i had |
11 |
freed up, and was astonished to find that i had not gained more free |
12 |
space, but lost some! i was intreged to i took a look arround, and found |
13 |
that the space i was using on the reiserfs partition was the wrong size, |
14 |
