Hi,

  I have installed SCO, Windows 2000 and Linux in my machine.  I want to get rid of 
windows2000 (sounds great?) and want to move linux partition there and keep the second hard 
disk usable by both SCO and linux(is this possible??).

Can anyone give me an easiest solution please?

Here are my partition tables.

[root at localhost admin]# /sbin/fdisk /dev/sda
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/sda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 522 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *         1       131   1048572   63  GNU HURD or SysV
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary:
     phys=(130, 138, 63) should be (130, 254, 63)
/dev/sda2           131       521   3136329    7  HPFS/NTFS



[root at localhost admin]# /sbin/fdisk /dev/sdb
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/sdb: 65 heads, 62 sectors, 1019 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 4030 * 512 bytes
   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1   *         1       953   1920264   83  Linux
/dev/sdb2           954      1019    132990    5  Extended
/dev/sdb5           954      1019    132959   82  Linux swap
