  • In this video, we have an important tutorial for those of you who are running a dual-boot setup with Linux and Windows. We'll be showing you step-by-step how to resize your Linux partition using GParted, a powerful partition manager for Linux. This will allow you to allocate more space or make adjustments without affecting your Windows installation.

    Thanks, this was helpful. In case someone is unable to allocate the unallocated space to the filesystem, you need to move the unallocated space next to filesystem (either on left or right)

      The partition you want to fuse needs to be next to the free space. For example, I took space from sda6 which is to the right of sda5. When I clicked resize, I dragged the bar to the right to free up space to the left, leaving free space to the right of sda5.

    Thank you very much, and keep up your work.

    Thank you so much, it worked for me. I shrank my Windows partition and had my Linux 1gb (EFI?) partition to the left of my Linux partition. I used Gparted from elementary OS and I moved the 1gb partition to the left such that the unallocated space which I shrank in Windows was to the left of my Linux partition. I then resized the Linux partition as shown in the video and IT WORKED PERFECTLY!
    No GRUB boot issues or anything!

    WARNING TO USERS:
    This works, HOWEVER there should also be an explanation of what will happen when you do resize the storage,
    When you do finish this and reboot, you will have the GNU GRUB menu...
    Meaning you CANNOT boot into anything.
    Which means that you have to go to redirect the PATH of the bootloader...
    With my case Im still trying to figure this out however youll need to go into windows and redirect the path using CMD and there are a few more things to do from there, but just a FYI bc if I would have known this I would have gone about it another way. A lot of people dont know that there needs to be additional instructions which should have been mentioned at the very least.

      What do you mean you won't be able to boot into anything if you have the GNU GRUB menu? GRUB menu is for booting into things.

    • @dre8134
      @dre8134 2 місяці тому

      @@SammyNeverEver yes however once you complete this tutorial, your EFI partition will not be pointing to any of the OS's all you will see is "grub>" which is the CLI, with no option to select anything to boot from.
      Not many people will know what to do from here, and or what happened, including people in this comment section.

    This is a great tutorial, but I still have trouble understanding what partition is Linux or not. On Drive 0 (C-Drive) it all says letters and numbers on the 'Type' whenever I use 'diskpart.'

    • @thiagob.6412
      @thiagob.6412 4 місяці тому

      take your time to go through all partitions before resizing partitions. I used the "Disks" application on Linux and took a picture of each partition while clicking so I could make sure which one I was working with on GParted. I did not resize an reallocate everything at once as this is dual-boot, so I did it all step by step and rebooted to check if both Windows and Linux were still there.
