Re: Partitions

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Manny,

I tried diskpart and it will not work unless your volumes are formatted in
NTFS. I did not do this because I am also running Fedora Core 4 and want to
be able to share information there and on my other volumes with the system
volume which is d: I guest C: is my booy volume. I have two free volumes,
and 2 others using space for web development and tools.

Thanks for any help.
