Default Adding partitions to FC4 Linux


I am using my FC4 with one ext3 and one swap partitions. I want to add another 30GB FAT32/NTFS partition currently used with windows.
1. How can I convert/format FAT32/NTFS partitions into ext3?
2. How to identify the newly added partition? Can I find it as seperate partition or file?
3. How use the newly added partition?

Default Re: Adding partitions to FC4 Linux

Just use gparted or qtparted which should be available in FC to format partition to ext3.
Then mount it under /media/<any name> or /mount/<any name>
To automatically mount it at boot time add it to the /etc/fstab file.
