Status :Busy

Is this normal in Qtparted

This is on a Slax remaster with

ntfsprogs-1.11.2
qtparted-most up to date version

So does it just hang or does it return?

Ive found the frontends for parted are real buggy and crappy, Ive only successfully resized a ntfs partition with gparted.

Its made for gnome but Slax is based on kde so it won't work but looks good though.

How can I check if its mounted

**cheetahman** · 08-12-2005

Slax isn't installed its running off the cd by the way

You can check if it is mounted with the

Code:

mount

command.

would that work in slax and wouldn't I have to be superuser and would it be in shell to go to

It should work in slax, with

Code:

mount

you don't have to be a superuser to do this. And type it in the terminal.
