Have you checked out rsync yet? I'm not sure if it is exactly what you are looking for, but upon initial inspection it appears to allow for live partition backup. I also have a dev web server I'm...
Also, if you can't use the sliders, you should be able to right-click on the partition in the lower part of the GParted screen and select Resize/Move. You have to start with the earliest partition...
What is /sda5? It's only 450MB(ish). Is that a necessary partition? If that one is there, I don't think You can resize /sda6 to take up space on the other side of that partition. I believe the...
Looks like I have found a way back into my OS for anyone that fell for the same thing I did. Here is what I had to do to get things going again:

I would look at the domain registrar and see if it is pointing to a name server on the old server's box. If it is, you could set it to use the registrar's name server and just use a couple of A Name...

Yeah, I remember reading about that whilst trying to figure out a dependency for EVE online in Wine. I remember seeing it and going, "Oh, so that's how you get 32 bit packages in there on a 64...
Ok, please don't take this as an expert reply, because I'm no expert, but I know that some i386 packages can be installed from the command line by adding :i386 to the end. Not sure if this will fix...
