Hi Group, I'm writing today to find out how to increase the size of my new
120 gb hard drive. You see I used ghost to copy my old 9 gb hard drive to
the new 120 gb hard drive and when I look at the drive in windows using
samba it shows that the drive is only 29 gb here is a fsdisk listing of my
partition right now

/sbin/sfdisk -l

Disk /dev/hda: 4111 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 8225280 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

   Device Boot Start End #cyls #blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 0+ 42 43- 345366 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 43 4004 3962 31824765 83 Linux
                end: (c,h,s) expected (1023,254,63) found (932,254,63)
/dev/hda3 4005 4110 106 851445 82 Linux swap
                start: (c,h,s) expected (1023,254,63) found (933,0,1)
                end: (c,h,s) expected (1023,254,63) found (14,254,63)
/dev/hda4 0 - 0 0 0 Empty

my question is how can I use the rest of the 90 gb or so that are still
left? Thanks in advance to all that help. Todd
