Hello All, I want some inputs, please help me in this.
I want to install Windows7 (which I don't want but for some work I have to do it unfortunately) on my external HDD (Seagate, 1TB) mounted as /dev/sdc1 (FileSystem: NTFS) on my base OS (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS). # Doubt 1: Total size of my HDD is showing in GParted is 931.51GB, I am fascinate where is the rest space? # Doubt 2: 600GB is full so it means I have 331GB remaining. I want to allocate 80GB to my Windows7, after this I will have 251Gb free, which I want to use for storing Data. I tried to resize my 1TB HDD using GParted and Resized my HDD and assigned 80GB which is shown as unallocated. Upto here I am fine but when I want to apply the changes I got a warning as: ***** Moving a partition might cause your operating system to fail to boot. you have queued an operation to move the start sector of partition /dev/sdc1. failure to boot is most likely to occur if you move the GNU/Linux partition containing /boot, or if you move the Windows system partition C: Moving a partition may take a very long time to apply. ***** So please be kind to guide me should I go further or not? I don't have any other media to take my backup. Thanks in advance. -- *Regards, Sahil ModGill* _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
