How to clear unused space with zeros ? (btrfs)
I'm looking for something smarter than
cat /dev/zero > /mnt/X/big_zero ; sync; rm /mnt/X/big_zero
Like FSArchiver is looking for "used space" and ignores unused, but opposite site.

Hi,
I am running F14 with KDE or gnome in VMWare Player on WinXP and want to do 2 things:
a) increase the hard disk size for Fedora without losing my installed system.
b) add the XCFE window manager.
Up to now

I downloaded Ubuntu 12.04, ran Parallels Desktop, then booted the Ubuntu ISO. I chose to install and that led me to this window i'm now in, asking me about Installation Type: Erase disk and install Ubuntu, or Create/resize partitions for Ubuntu. I'm not sure if I need to partition; but if I choose to erase disk and install, I worry if I'll erase my iMac files with it.
