Hi,
I have been trying to use gparted live cd to resize my ubuntu partition to make room for another OS to test around with. When I got my pc parts from newegg in the mail I put everything together in a hurry to play some video games and forgot to leave a spare partition for other things...
Anyhow, When I try resizing it using the graphical program on the livecd all I get is "nothing to do" when it gets to the shrink stage. So I researched and found a suggestion to try `resize2fs -f /dev/sda1`. I booted back to the livecd and tried it from the terminal and now I get "Segmentation Fault".
Does anyone have an idea how I can get this working? The live cd is 0.4.5-2 which is supposed to work with ext4 since 0.4.2.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks!
