LiLi 4.0 Update Error--not enought room--gparted to extend and now no boot

[rondi]

Thanks kpanic. I guess I did not word my post very well--I meant to ask if there was a way to restore the USB stick that I used gparted to expand the 6gb partition to the full (usable) 14.5 gb. I gave up and just reinstalled 4.0 on another USB stick earlier today. I'm not sure what I did in the previous install, but I did as you suggested and did not run the Format selection in the installer. Now all I have to do is reinstall the printer driver, and other apps I had installed in failed repartition stick. My installer does not ask for partition selection. I am using Universal USB Installer, which asks what size you want the persistence file. The other installers I had tired do not ask that, and most that I tired do not provide persistence.
Thanks for your help, I'll mark this solved.
