Fedora :: Making A NTFS Partition?

Jul 23, 2009

When I installed Fedora I wasn't paying attention and used my whole hard drive for Linux. Now my Vista is gone, and I don't have an NTFS Partition to reinstall it. Obviously this one is not formatted right... But I want to know how I can add a new NTFS partition to be able to reinstall Vista. I don't care if I have to delete Fedora... I'll just reinstall later using more attention.

Hardware :: Ran Mkfs.vfat Over Top Ntfs Partition - Any Way To Restore Ntfs Partition Info?

Oct 12, 2010

I was attempting to format a flash drive, and well, used the wrong sdX device. I've run DiskInternals Partition Recovery tool, and all my files are still there (you have to pay $139 to have it restore the files). Is there any way using tools in linux to restore the ntfs partition/files? It was a single disk with the partition taking the entire drive. I've tried mounting it with the -t option, but it says invalid ntfs signature. Man, two lessons the hard way, make sure you backup (duh) and be careful what you type as root.

General :: Uninstall Grub From Logical Partition

Dec 28, 2010

I'm multi-booting with Windows 7 x64 and (at least) Linux Mint. Because I hadn't yet made a backup of my MBR, when I installed Linux Mint on a logical partition, I told the installer to put GRUB on the partition instead of in the MBR. This turned out to be useless, as I need to use GRUB from a boot disk to get into the GRUB I installed. Before installing it in the MBR, I'd like to get it out of the partition, preferably without wiping and reinstalling Linux. I don't relish the prospect of going through two layers of GRUB when I want to boot Linux. How do I get it out, or what other options are available to me?

General :: Exact Process Of Booting From Logical Partition

Aug 2, 2009

I apologize if this has been asked a hundred times, but I searched through the threads and posts here and did not find an answer that helped me at all.What is the exact process of booting from a logical partition?
I have read several things, and all are confusing to me and I can't find a good answer.Here's what I know and an example:I've read this is easily possible.some things I've read said something about it being complex and that you have to chainload. Some things I've read said it's very easy, but it has something to do with booting from the extended partition. Others said, no you use the logical partition itself. I can't clear up what anyone is talking about..When using openSUSE 11.1, the Live CD and trying to install it. It will give me problems when trying to boot from a logical partition, not to mention I don't want to do something wrong and add data or anything where it shouldn't be. I don't know what I'm doing, at all, and I can't understand people's explanations of this.

When using openSUSE, you can choose (when configuring GRUB using the graphical installation) "boot from extended partition" and use "custom boot partition: sda(1,2,3,whatever)" and it will work. If you choose to boot from the logical partition only, and don't check "boot from extended partition", it will say "no operating system found" when booting. What exactly is happening here, I'm completely lost. Choosing "boot from extended partition" can't cause any problems of any kind, can it? What is the proper way of doing things in this situation, what is really happening?

General :: Possible To Move Ubuntu Primary Partition To Logical / Extended?

Nov 5, 2010

I'm currently dual booting Windows 7 64bit and Ubuntu 10.10 each on primary partitions. Then on the other 2 partitions I have the manufacturer recovery partition (which I am not sure I should remove...), and then a partition for storage and files. Now I want an Arch Linux installation on the hard drive, but obviously I cannot create a new primary partition because I already have 4. I found out that linux can run from a logical partition (which you can have multiple of)..However I do not want to format my Ubuntu partition and I'd prefer to keep the data on there all intact. Is there a way to move my Ubuntu installation (on the primary partition) to an extended partition where I could put multiple logical partitions for multiple linux installations?

General :: RHEL5 Not Assigning Partition For Usb Key

Dec 16, 2010

I'm trying to mount a USB key in a RHEL5 box to upload some file. I found doc online and followed it and mounted it fine the first time. Then I unplugged it and found that I have another file to upload so I plugged it back in. However this time it's not assigned a partition (last time was sdb1) and I can't mount it anymore. I think the USB key is recognized and the driver is installed properly:

Software :: Convert Primary Partition To Logical (ie Move It Inside The Extended Partition)?

Nov 29, 2010

Around 2008 i seem to remember PartEd on the command-line was able to rescue deleted partitions and gave a choice of whether to recover the partition as a Primary or Logical Partition. I have tried testdisk but didn't really grok what i was doing. I successfully moved a "Windows Recovery" partition to the end of my hard-drive, immediately after the drive's Extended Partition.

Fedora :: Home Partition And Create Logical Volume Out Of 53 Gb Filesystem Partition?

Aug 24, 2010

I installed fedora 13 64 bit and it works great but I encountered several issues when setting up guest OS with KVM. The problem seems to be related to selinux. But let me first ask question about logical volume. By Default fedora created logical volumes:

[Code].....

"If you expect that you or other users will store data on the system, create a separate partition for the /home directory within a volume group. With a separate /home partition, you may upgrade or reinstall Fedora without erasing user data files." seems to suggest I have to create a separate physical partition and assign that to /home. But reading elsewhere it seems to suggest logical volume acts like a partition. My goal is to make it easy in case fedora is hosed and I have to re-install it without affecting /home where my cirtical data resides. Given above do I need to create a separate physical partition or I am just fine?

I have a second hard disk that originally had windows and all my data. Windows is hosed but I can see my data from within Fedora and Windows is gone and I created created new partition in its place which used ot be the C:/ drive appears as 53 Gb filesystem. My data which was originally D drive appears as 215 GB filesystem. As given in [URL] I want to create a new logical volume in 53 Gb filesystem which I want to use as space for virtual disk to install guest OS's in KVM. Currrently 53 GB filesystem is mounted as /media/3467BH89JK789 but this does not work well with KVM. how do I create this logical volume out of 53 Gb filesystem partition and add proper selinux info and do I add to vg_vostrolx volume group and in a different volume group?

OpenSUSE Install :: Deleting One Logical Partition Changes Partition Numbers Of The Others?

Oct 9, 2010

I started withsda1 windows restore sda3 extendedsda5 swapsda6 /mandrivasda7 /SUSE 11.3
sda8 /SUSE 11.2I then made some changes with gparted (from PartedMagic 5.5) to create an ntfs partition to simulate a condition where someone may want to delete that partition and use the free space for linux. I then deleted that partition, sda2 then sda5 (swap) and taking some screenshots, went about resizing partitions to use that free space and then recreate swap. the intention being to create a basic guide on how to go about this.I have previously only had my swap at the end of the extended partition, deleting itand recreating it later had caused little trouble.I realize that a resize/move operation would have been a better choice.What I was not expecting was the partition number changes that occurred.

Code:
root@PartedMagic:~# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes

General :: Making A Data Partition And Installation Of Buntu 10.10

Nov 28, 2010

I wanted to migrate from ubuntu karmic to the latest ubuntu 10.10, but i already have a lots of data on my hard disk in home directory. i was thinking if it is possible to transfer all the data to one directory and make a separate partition of it , so tht when i install a fresh copy of ubuntu 10.10 on my system i need not format this new partition ,which contains al my data.is it possible tht this new partition will automatically get mounted on the new system without the need to execute commands from terminal every time i start my system. if there is any other alternative way for solving this problem i would follow tht too.the reason for my migration is that karmic is really troubling me a lot and so many applications including my sound device have failed to work and i am not able to rectify them..
