Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3333767 By: firecat53 After one successful install of Ubuntu on my laptop, I'm attempting an install on our main desktop, to dual-boot with XP. The desktop is a three-year old Gateway with a 60GB single partition hard drive. I've tried unsuccessfully numerous times to repartition the hard drive using ntfsresize(both on the Ubunutu 5.04 install disk and from a Knoppix 3.9 CD) and keep getting numerous 'cluster accounting errors' when ntfsresize initially looks over the filesystem. I've tried the 'chkdsk /f' and 'chkdsk /r' from XP and both finish successfully but still don't change the outcome of the ntfsresize. I've downloaded the most recent version of ntfsprogs (v. 1.11.2) on a rescue CD (RIP - Linux) and tried that, as it was supposed to fix some of the errors people encountered using ntfsresize, but got the same result. The XP install works fine and no errors are generated from the chkdsk or a defrag. I'm at a loss!! I'd really hate to reinstall windows again if I can avoid it, but I do recognize that could be the next step unless someone has an idea of what to fix!
