I'm in the process of upgrading a dual boot PC. The partitions are:
/dev/hda1 - Windows 2000 (NTFS)
/dev/hda2 - ext3
/dev/hda3 - swap
What I do not see is a / or /boot partition. Yet this system has been a dual boot system using grub as the boot loader.
Since all of the drive space has been used I cannot create a / partition and therefore I cannot upgrade the system.
Does anyone know 1) how is this possible to not the / partition or a /boot; 2) Do I need to reformat this entire drive in order to set this up?
Thanks
