It's trying to mount the filesystem as ext3 so go into the file /etc/fstab and change references of ext3 to ext2 and try again. Once you've got this sorted have a look at gparted as this can resize ext3 filesystems just fine and also comes in a boot cd: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/features.php http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=115843&package_id=173828 Ian -- Web: http://wand.net.nz/~iam4 Blog: http://iansblog.jandi.co.nz WAND Network Research Group
