OpenSUSE Install :: How To Manually Partition 30GB For OpenSUSE Too?
Feb 22, 2010I got a hold of openSUSE11.2 recently, burned it, and booted the disc up.Now i got a problem.I ain't too experienced in partitioning, so i choose everything as selected in the installation(i downloaded the full DVD, not a live CD)and i got to the partitioning part.I have this:
500GB WD Caviar Blue SATA2
80GB ATA
I installed Ubuntu on the 500gb with wubi and partitioned 30GB for it.Well that one is easier, i have absolutely no experience in installing from a CD/DVD.I saw instlux, but it wouldn't run from Win7 Any guide on how to manually partition 30GB for openSUSE too?

Feb 14, 2011Is it possible to increase the size of the Hard drive to 200GB when installing Ubuntu on top of Windows. The Reason I ask it that I have a Laptop with a 500GB Hard drive, which has windows installed on it Obviously I cannot create a new Partition on this drive to do a separate install. 30GB is just to small for what I want to do on Ubuntu, I know I can access the hard drive using /host/* but that is hassle that I do not want.

Jun 22, 2011I installed Redhat Enterprise 3 on one of my servers. In my haste I didn't properly partition both Hard Drives and only properly partitioned one of them. Thus now I have
/dev/sdb1 478711768 137858256 316536328 31% /
/dev/sda1 101089 15346 80524 17% /boot
Where /dev/sda1 is actually a 80 GB hard drive. Is there anyway I can safely and easily repartition the unpartitioned space without causing a huge mess? I have a very important Oracle database on /dev/sdb1 and thus I want to be able to back it up on the second disk. I can create a partition on that drive?
Fedora :: Home Partition And Create Logical Volume Out Of 53 Gb Filesystem Partition?
Aug 24, 2010I 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?

May 14, 2010I just requested a CD for the newest Ubuntu and was wondering if it was like the Wubi CD that you get when you download the image off the website. Also if doing a full install would affect another operating system that you are also using (I am running windows 7). Would you need a partition in the hard drive? How do I create a partition? Would I choose which os I wanted a boot up? Also, I was wondering if the CD you get when you request one is 32 or 64 bit.

Ubuntu :: Create An Image For OS Partition?
Oct 30, 2010Ok, have a system with 10.10 with the things I need, I installed this OS on a laptop which has a 40gb drive. 32-bit version. Before installing ubuntu i had Windows7 and had split the drive in 2 partitions (20/20) and currently have an image of the Windows7 OS in the 2nd partition.
Anyway, when installing ubuntu i used the 1st partition that has Windows7 OS and made 3 partitions out of it:
-12gb partition for /root
- 3gb partition for /swap
- 5gb partition for /home
In the Windows world i use Ghost utility(DOS version) to image my single Windows7 partition completely. This works fine.
Since in ubuntu we usually create multiple partitions,
1-what utility can be used to create an image of the partition ?
2-do you JUST create the image of /root ?
I really want to create an image now that i can then restore if something happens to the OS and be back in business quickly without reinstalling ubuntu from scratch.

I only have 1 MB of unallocated hard drive space, but I do have a 227.13 GB partition, only 6.48 GB of which is used. If I create a partition table, will my computer become unbootable? And if so, is it possible for me to use the Disk Utility to re-format my hard drive to NTFS so I can completely reinstall Windows instead?
