Move /dev/hda2 to beginning which now becomes /dev/hda1.
Now increase the size of /dev/hda3 to maximum which of course becomes /dev/hda2.
Now before leaving you need to mount your /dev/hda3 which should now be /dev/hda2 and edit /boot/grub.conf if you are using grub.
In it you need to change the root ID from root (0,2) to root (0,1) since you removed one partition and this is where your /boot directory is now located.
Also edit the root=/dev/hda3 to root=/dev/hda2 in the kernel section since this is where your kernel is located now.
Ok, I think I delete the /dev/hda1 and do the rest you suggest.
Is it fdisk I will work with ?
Is it to much to ask, if I can get the console-commands for doing it ?
Here is my grub.conf:
Code:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You do not have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
# root (hd0,2)
# kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda3
# initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=20
splashimage=(hd0,2)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora Core (2.6.11-1.35_FC3)
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.35_FC3 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.11-1.35_FC3.img
I don't understand this "root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet" what is this ?
Can I or should I change this to "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.35_FC3 ro root=/dev/hda2"
Thanks !
