Aaron Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 fdisk won't resize partitions, so I don't think its at all possible you'll be able to get what you requested.If its really important that you use a DOS tool, then try out FIPS, or the partition magic 2 diskettes version.

Jay_Stealth Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 i agree with aaron eeugh how i despise fdisk with a passion its m$'s work of evil (seds gonna kill me for sayin m$) if u must use a dos tool use FIPS but otherwise id use PM8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
]Pai_Natal[ Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Use the partition magic 8.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unwonted Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 AEFDISK is far more functional than FDISK. You might want to try that instead. Also, if you want to know what you can do with most DOS programs, just write something like "AEFDISK /?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
