The partition is Fat32 and Yast2 resized it automatically to 17GB (coming from 40) ext3.
Weird thing is I was able to access files in that dir before I rebooted  :(

Ice-9:
Just ignore the "ext3", it's the journalling system I chose, nothing to do with my Win partition.

hoojchoons:
That's funny. I'm using SuSE Linux 8.0 as well but haven't had any problems with my Win partition yet. Did you partition manually or let YAST2 do the whole job?

Ice-9:
I let Yast do the whole job.

voidmain:
I think I know what your problem is... Do you mean you can't see the windows files when booted in Linux?  Sounds like your Windows partition is not mounted. "/windows" would just be the mount directory. Open a shell and type "mount" which will list what partitions are mounted.  Then to mount your Windows partition you would "mount /windows" (or use whatever directory is your Win partition mount point). Also, not being familiar with SuSe or Yast I would be willing to bet that Yast has a graphical mount utility that will set up the partitions that you want to mount and weather to mount them at boot time.
