Okay so I need help using GParted to make WAY more space for my current 12.04 32-bit install. I just recently installed the other day because I just got this computer back up and running. I had Windows and two Mint installations, and my end game was my dad's Windows with maybe an extra 15GB of space for him, and the rest of it for my 12.04 and a little Swap.
Ihave ubuntu 11.10 on 1 TB hard drive /home is seperate 890 GB partition swap is 8GB and boot is 9 GB now afrter shrinking /home and moving swap I have unallocated 23 GB between / boot and swap. I need to expand boot to the unallocated space as am getting low disk space warning in boot partition as there is only 796 MB unused in that partition.
Hello,
HP Mini 210
Fedora 16
I have downloaded the recent F17 Beta live CD and would like to install it.
Normally, when I install I always select the following custom partitions:
/boot
/swap
/root
/home
I am just wondering is it possible to install Fedora17 and keep my existing partitions so my home directory will not be formatted?
I would like to format the following partition
I sugest this:format yoy 'new hardisk' and move home to that and edit it to mount /home from the new diskremmember empty home previous to (re)mount home from the /etc/fstab to prevent problemsthis can clean space...
My current setup is a 18GB root, 400GB /home, 2GB swap, 80GB Windows.
Is /home automatically separated?
Can I reinstall root without wiping home?
How much space on my 500GB drive should be allocated to the LVM? It'll dual-boot with a Windows 8 partition. This partition will also be the one that both OSes share.
I have a 200GB DESKTOP hard drive - set up according to a default LVM FEDORA 15 SETUP
However my home directory is full have to delete files / empty downloads to free 1-2 GB to use it
but disk u du show i have
50 GB FREE SPACE IN TMP AND /USR/TMP DIRECTORY
HOW DO I **DO IT SAFELY**
TO FREE THE SPACE IN THOSE EMPTY DIRECTORIES AND MAKE /HOME LARGER BY SAY IE 30GB
DO NOT THINK I NEED
/sda5 is ~/home. In GParted, to /sda5's left is 65 gig of unallocated space on the hard drive.
I tried expanding (in GParted terminology "resizing") the /sda5 to include the unallocated space, but the slider has nowhere to go.
Is it possible to make the unallocated space a part of /sda5?
It's the first time I install Ubuntu. I need some advise to plan a good partition strategy for a Ubuntu (12.04) + Windows7 (64bit) system.
I have 1TB Hard disk, 8GB RAM.
I'd like to have a big partition NTFS to share data between the two OS
I often use a lot of (big) apps. (So my partition Widows C: must takes about 150GB)
What is the partition size should I put for root and home?
/ (???
I use Ubuntu 11.10 and have three partitions, one ext4 for the root directory, one ext4 for the /home and one for swap.
