Need to clean up the hard disk

[Albert DE WINT <adwint pandora be>]

Hi Mark and Otto,

First I'd like to thank both of you for the outstanding assistance on my
"partition" experience!  It was an interesting exercice.

Now that lost I Mandrake, I don't feel like installing it again.
Let it be... (John Lennon)

I had a hard time, reinstalling WinXP for my kids, today.
I still have to take care about a new MBR to make RH9 boot.
(I now use a floppy to boot.)

I noticed WinXP 'rearranged' the partition table.
So, HD9 fails to install the swap partition hda4 while booting. 

[root dimension etc]# cat fstab
LABEL=/        /              ext3    defaults        1 1
LABEL=/boot    /boot          ext3    defaults        1 2
none           /dev/pts       devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
none           /proc          proc    defaults        0 0
none           /dev/shm       tmpfs   defaults        0 0
/dev/hda4      swap           swap    defaults        0 0
/dev/hda7      swap           swap    defaults        0 0
/dev/cdrom     /mnt/cdrom     udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1    /mnt/cdrom1    udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0       /mnt/floppy    auto    noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
[root dimension etc]#

I suppose I can do without swap. 'top' says I don't use it.
Besides, I have plenty of DRAM (512MB).

But I would like to 'clean up' that messy disk. Can this be done using
some REDHAT tools? PartitionMagic has made me think twice before jumping
into another adventure. I'd rather not use it again.

Albert
