Title: Partition help
Post by: Fett101 on 1 October 2002, 10:40

Got an inkling go give Linux another go, so I start up the install for Mandrake. When I get to the drive partitioning, I choose to resize the fat32, but it will only allow me to cut off less then a GB. After running defrag, it always seems leaves a mesh of files near the end of the disk. Any tips, ideas, programs, insults? Thanks.

And before anyone says it, format :C would be a last ditch effort.
