I had Windows 8 installed with 2 Ubuntu parititions in dual boot, everything running well. I hated Win 8 so I installed Win 7 over it by deleting my 80gb Windows partition and installing it in there.
But now I can't boot Ubuntu up, since obviously Windows has overwritten Grub.
Before I started this, I went into Windows 8 and reduced it's size to allow roughly 10GB of unallocated data. I want to increase Ubuntu 12.10's partition to fill that void.
I ran Ubuntu (Trial) from my CD as told to in multiple tutorials and ran GParted.
I have a machine running ubuntu 12.04 and windows 8 on dual boot.
I want to extend my "ext4" partition with an unallocated partition. Here's how my partitions look:
What I thought I should do is:
1. Extend the "extended" file system by 75.00 GiB. After doing that, the unallocated file system will be above the linux-swap.
2.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 in an VMware ESX environment, and I need to add disk space to the primary / partition. I added the disk space in ESX, and and the Ubuntu VM sees it as unallocated space. When I the live gparted, it sees the new space as well. However, in gparted it only shows the ext4 partition and the swap, but no extended partition.
Hi,
After finishing a full reinstall where I changed the partioning on my hard drive, I find Gparted not recognising my swap space.
The partition is shown as an unknown file system and is, according to Gparted, not mounted after start-up, however when I want to format it to a linux-swap, Gparted wil fail and return that the partition is busy.
The GParted application is the GNOME partition editor for creating, reorganizing, and deleting disk partitions.
A disk device can be subdivided into one or more partitions. The gparted application enables you to change the partition organization on a disk device while preserving the contents of the partition.

Well I'm running 2 different distro's of Linux right now and I decided to make my Ubuntu partition my primary partition larger so I took 119.53 GB out of my other distro's partition and it became unallocated and then I figured Gparted would when I right click on it to resize/move give me the option of using it to make another partition bigger but it did not so I went Google searching on line and i
