I used the automatic setup process on install for the most part, except for having to mess with the fstab file to get some of my shares on separate drives to boot and mount automatically (which baffles me why that’s needed too … but I digress LOL) It appears like the boot is tiny, and some other “lvm” partition or something is taking up the honking big space that’s showing up as .. unallocated? I know I’ve got a number of Apps installed, but I refuse to believe 240 GB is plain gone?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>What do I do to resize this … or is this a wipe and start over (again) type deal?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks for any help<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Curt Dawe<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Newfoundland, Canada<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
