Using /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc
(parted) print
Disk geometry for /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc: 0kB - 40GB
Disk label type: msdos
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 8004MB 8260MB 256MB primary linux-swap

I have the first 8GB reserved, but i don't need this, my xbox is linux only with gentoox bios and 128 MB of ram.
Is there a solution to get the complete space of my disk to linux?
I don't want to reinstall...

Please anyone help me.....
Thanks!!!
