I tried also but far from being an expert of fdisk at one moment I made enough mistake to reach to broken my fs :-( (... :-) I had a fresh backup so don't have any pb to recover data) I had an additional remark: to use this disk as a new boot disk (a mirror) for my hppa box I need at least a (small) /boot fs standing in the first 2Gb of the disk I have so to move my original data slice. Unfortunately, the best I can do is to reduce the size of my fs to 20Gb (on a disk of 36Gb). So I will never have any opportunity to copy it at another place on the same disk (the only other available disk being of only 9Gb) to mimic the move. hth, Joel --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tiscali solde! 1 mois et activation Gratuits, modem à 9,99€ http://reg.tiscali.be/adsl/default.asp?lg=FR
