Hi, I have one 40GB drive and this is where I have my FC5 installed. Besides, I have another drive 30GB drive, which I partitioned into 20GB(movies) and 10GB(mp3) vfat (FAT32) filesystem. It is almost full. Obviously the reason for VFAT is so that I can use it with Windows machine but I want to change the file system of this drive to ext3 and merge them into one partition (single drive single partition) to use it solely with my FC5. ==================== 20GB + 10GB = 30GB single drive and (ext3 file system) ==================== I know backing up is the good practice but I have no extra drive to backup my files. So may be I need to change this first two drive into ext3 and then merge them together. is it possible what I am thinking of???
Backing up to another media, converting the filesystem and restoring is the only way AFAIK. I wanted to do the same some time ago and could not find any tool to do so. The tools you mentioned help in partitioning/resiging partitions but do not help in the current scenario. Vijay Vijay
