A single drive, partitioned...

Dear all,
So, my new media server is all working perfectly... but...
When I did the Linux (14.04) install, I partitioned my 2TB hard drive (one of those cached ((bit of SSD)) super fast ones) with a 500GB Linux partition, leaving 1.5TB less all the space that is used by various bits and bobs) for me to use. I used the instructions on the this site for a fresh install... I then did the TBS drivers (how can this be so easy to follow here, and so hard to follow on the TBS web site?), Tvheadend, Gnome desktop, VNC - and it all worked perfectly first time (I also added the Samba and SSH options on the Linux install as recommended).
My question is - how do I alter Tvheadend to use the 1.5Tb space for recordings? Do I need to format the 1.5TB partition? I Googled this but back came double dutch...
Cheers in advance...
Dan
