I have 32 GB of info on this already that I cannot backup in any way. The partition programs won't touch is since it's dynamic and I can't seem to find a solution. I need to partition the disc so that I can install the other OS on it.<BR /><BR />Does anyone have a solution to this other than reformatting the drive and making it basic?<BR /><BR />Thanks!<BR />Celia Sun, 29 Aug 2004 12:40:49 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk/partitioning-dynamic-discs/m-p/3367538#M4984 silje 2004-08-29T12:40:49Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk/partitioning-dynamic-discs/m-p/3367539#M4985 have a look at this thread:<BR /><BR /><A href="http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/archive/10/2004/06/1/187229" target="_blank">http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/archive/10/2004/06/1/187229</A><BR /><BR /> Wed, 01 Sep 2004 03:56:30 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk/partitioning-dynamic-discs/m-p/3367539#M4985 Marino Meloni_1 2004-09-01T03:56:30Z
