Hi.

Newbie question.

I'd like to move an NTFS (WinXP SP3) data partition to the end of the harddrive. Is this possible using the Ubuntu 9.04 live CD?

Thanks,

yes, use Gparted on live cd (-->top bar>Settings>admin>Partition editor)

like this (http://gparted.sourceforge.net/larry/move/move.htm)

good luck

Worked!
Thanks a lot!

... except that it seems that it changed the NTFS block size for some reason. Wasn't my intention, but didn't harm ...
