if i use the disk management tool on windows, i can see the second partition/volume. can't use it because it won't let me assign it a drive letter stating the volumn isn't enabled. i should restart to enable it ???
anyways, i thought about resizing the usb-zip created partitions. make sda2 about 30 megs big, and sda1 take all the rest. this way i could just use sda2 for dsl backup and sda1 inside windows as well as for dsl booting.
tried parted, won't let me. says it can't currently resize partitions of that type to the size i'm trying. i'm guessing it's cuz of the geometry. i was succesful resizing it to 50megs :laugh:
running out of options here.
