In short, I GHOSTED from a 4.5GB drive to a 9GB drive, however, I am reasonably sure that I still have only 4.5GB of usable space on the target 9GB drive, unless I resize the partitions (specifically the /u partition). Is there a way to do this without losing data?

PHV,

Thanks, but I went into divvy, and that would allow me to restructure the divisions if I had the space. Apparenty, when I Ghosted the drive from the 4.5G to the 9G, the empty space does not even appear in divvy. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Joe

Neither Fdisk nor Divvy sees the extra space. Any other way to recoup that wasted space?
