While you had (I assume) /dev/sda4 set up as an extended partion, and /dev/sda6 as a logical. What happened to /dev/sda5, /dev/sda2, and /dev/sda1 (I assume /boot). Looks like you simply let Ubuntu take the defaults. The reason /dev/sda6 does not show up using df, is that it is not mounted on anything. --=20 Jerry Feldman <gaf-mNDKBlG2WHs at public.gmane.org> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
