Hi,
I recently tried to reduce my NTFS partition by removing some of the free space and to redistribute it to my /home partition so that I would have more free space there. I seemed to manage to do all this with GPARTED. I used gparted loaded on a usb stick to do everything.
However when I restarted arch I got errors and it forced a check on the partition. This turned out to be fine and the partition didn't lose any information. However the extra "free space" is gone. My harddisk is 50GB smaller than it should be.
I ran testdisk and did a "deep analysis" and got the following information:
Disk /dev/sda - 250 GB / 232 GiB - CHS 30401 255 63
Partition Start End Size in sectors
D HPFS - NTFS 0 1 1 7010 254 63 112631652
D HPFS - NTFS 0 1 1 30399 254 63 488375937
D Linux 7011 0 1 8922 254 63 30716280
D Linux 8923 0 1 24281 254 63 246742335
D Linux Swap 30019 0 1 30400 254 63 6136830
D Linux Swap 30273 0 1 30400 254 63 2056320
The way things are supposed to be is 4 partitions:
65GB NTFS
15GB /root
165GB /home
3GB SWAP
Any ideas what could be causing the problems?
