Hello
I have a Dell Latitude E6500 laptop is currently set up as a dual boot system. The first Linux system is Ubuntu 16.04 and the second system is the current version of Linux Lite. The Ubuntu "side" of the system has developed issues. I would like to remove it and leave the Linux Lite "side" as the sole system. Can I use G Parted to delete the Ubuntu partition, then expand the current LL partition? If yes, I will have rebuild the GRUB boot-loader if I understand this correctly?
The partition table is as follows
Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
/dev/sda1 * 2048 123411318 123409271 58.9G 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 123412478 234440703 111028226 53G 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 230348800 234440703 4091904 2G 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda6 123412480 230348799 106936320 51G 83 Linux
/dev/sda1 is the Ubuntu "side"
Any input would be appreciated
Thanks
