Can the system take both hard disks as a single space? Do I need any reconfiguring for it to work? Now I have a 7.5GB hard disk loaded with Xubuntu 10.10. I intend to add another 8GB hard disk to the ide controller. You can do it using lvm. If you didn't use lvm during installation, you need quite a bit of reconfiguring for it. In fact, it may be faster to just reinstall with lvm. -- Radomir Dopieralski, <a href="http://sheep.art.pl" target="_blank">http://sheep.art.pl</a> -- xubuntu-users mailing list <a ymailto="mailto:xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com" href="/mc/compose?to=xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users</a> </div></blockquote></td></tr></table>
