[SOLVED] Expanding LL partition
#3
You have 2 options:
  • Use the ntfs partition as a new ext4 partition (can be done from the running distro, no need to boot into Live mode)
    • Start GParted
    • Destroy the ntfs partition
    • Create a new ext4 partition in the empty space
    • Close GParted
    • Create a directory where the new partition will be mounted (as root, but change ownership/privileges as needed)
    • Add the new partition mount line to /etc/fstab
    • Test using "sudo mount -a" and repeat as needed until mounted correctly
  • Add the ntfs partition to the existing partition (must be done from the Live mode)
    • Boot into Live CD mode
    • Start GParted
    • Destroy the ntfs partition
    • Expand the existing ext4 partition
    • Reboot
