Fedora

Hi,

I'm running Fedora Core 1 and have 2 Hard Drives, each 40 GB.
But when i was installing Fedora i setup the HD and now is showing
hda1 mounted at /boot (4.0 MB size) and hdb1 mounted at / (40 GB size).
It is showing the first HD as only 4MB in size, where is the rest of space?
Can i change it so that it shows (recognizes) the real size of the HD, without reinstalling the Linux or is that space lost, because of the setup?

Please help!

Esso

You'd have to create a partition for the rest of hda(x) to be mounted to it.

Oddly enough, you didn't mention a partition for your /swap partition. Is it missing, or did you not include it in your list of partitions?

Please copy & paste your /etc/fstab here so I can look at it. All the partitions you should need should've been created during install, but for whatever reason, I have no idea what it did. Without seeing your fstab entries, I have no idea what I'm looking at.
