partition problem

[Bryan Boyne]

I just installed a new 60gb HD. During the setup I chose
to create a 30gb partition. The system does not show a
second drive letter and indicates a total of 30gb on the
drive.
What did I do wrong and how can I fix it?
Thanks for any help.

I think you have to explicitly tell it to create the
second partition.

The remainder of it is free space until you create other partitions
and format them. There is no indiction of free space when you look
at the system except in fdisk or the disk manager. It's there, but not
allocated to anything.

Bryan;
Use Disk Management for the unallocated space:
