Hello,

I installed 9.2 on a PC with existing XP SP2. One HDD with 1 primary
partition 30GB "C" and an extended part. with 80GB "D".
SuSE resized the extenden part. to install there. The resize worked, but all
data in the NTFS Part. "D" got lost. SuSE shows no files.
Trying to access "D" under XP only asks me to format "D"

Is this a bug or a feature?

Uli
