Adding partitions to FC4 Linux

[kadal27]

I am using my FC4 with one ext3 and one swap partitions. I want to add another 30GB FAT32/NTFS partition currently used with windows.
1. How can I convert/format FAT32/NTFS partitions into ext3?
2. How to identify the newly added partition? Can I find it as seperate partition or file?
3. How use the newly added partition?

Just use gparted or qtparted which should be available in FC to format partition to ext3.
Then mount it under /media/<any name> or /mount/<any name>
To automatically mount it at boot time add it to the /etc/fstab file.
