Resize FAT32 partition under WinXP
I would like to resize my 2nd FAT32 partition to make some space for Linux. I have defragmented the drive using Norton Speedisk. However, I think, based on the graphical layout, the files have been relocated mostly to the beginning of the partition, with some files placed on the other end of the partition.
[xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] [xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] [xxxx............................................................] [.............................xxxxx] Thus, I would not be able to resize the partition at all, right? (Would like to use Partition Magic to do so when possible.) How do I solve this problem? Thanks in advance. |

You can resize with Partition Magik, it will move the files located at the end of the partition to a more appropriate area. No problems there.
Do a backup, just in case. |
