Hi,
I'm about to upgrade my Debian install to Sarge. I've always done this
online before but it's been slow since I use dialup. This time I bought
a set of CDs for a work pc so I'd like to do the upgrade from them.
BUT, many months ago my Windows 2000 partition self-destructed during a
service-pack upgrade. Since I rarely used it I just left it for dead.
But now I'd like to reclaim it for Debian. My question is can anyone
give me any advice on how to go about this? I'd like to reclaim that
extra space for Debian and then upgrade to Sarge.
Is there a non-destructive way to add a partition? My current /
partition of 4G is running out of room though my /usr partition is only
30% full and is 1 G. The recovered space is 5G. I'd like to be able to
non-destructively expand the /partition into it. I assume it makes most
sense to repartition then upgrade but I'm not sure. The other
possibility I wonder about is just installing Sarge into the old Windows
partition and then finding some way for it to also access the old Debian
partition. But I'm not sure how to go about that.
In any case if anyone can suggest best scenarios I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
Ken
