So, in Windows, move everything you want to keep off D onto C or something. Then run Disk Manager (assuming you're using XP) - Start | Run | diskmgmt.msc Select the D drive - and make very very sure that it *IS* the D drive, not the C drive - and delete it. Save the changes and reboot. Check that Windows still boots and runs off C. So long as it's OK, reboot with your Ubuntu CD and get it to use the free space. -- Liam Proven ?

I know ive done it.

Being secretive and in some case anti-competitive. Maybe the EU commission might need to look into them. That would give the big A a wake call.

The caddy is unreliable, so am considering moving the disk into the PC (it just has media on it). If I were to plug the drive into the PC and switch on, would it automount, or would it need adding to /etc/fstab manually?
