 |
|
So... I resized my Music parition with Gparted in hopes of using my entire 180gb HD for music. I deleted two partitions and then resized /dev/hde1 to take up the whole disk. This seemed to go well with out any errors. BUT 'df' returns the same size as before and when I use parted from the command line and ask it to quick check the partition it gives me this warning: " Warning: Partition 1 is 180GB, but the file system is 70GB." I am not sure what I have done wrong here  It is an EXT3 filesytem and everything mounts fine.
e2fsck -v /dev/hde1
returns
e2fsck 1.38 (30-Jun-2005)
/dev/hde1: clean, 13773/8552448 files, 16117765/17091144 blocks
What else do I do at this point?

Why, resize the filesystem, of course! Using sys-fs/ext2resize , I presume ...
