I used GPARTED to take some free space on an 80 gig HD and make an additional partition. GPARTED shows that it was created successfully and the space was reduced to allow for the new partition. Now, I can't read / write to it - or see it in UBUNTU (Hardy) file system. What do I need to do (and how) to get the new partition accessable.

Thanks in advance. A 67 year old beginner.

You will need to mount the partition, or if you go the computer icon you should find the drive, double click and it should show up on your desktop.
