i usally boot from the cd and install linux but this time i used the wubi installer (because i already had windows installed and i didnt want to use the grub bootloader), so when i installed it i accendently set the harddrive space to 10 gb, and after i set up everything on ubuntu just how i wanted it (spending 2 days (slow internet)) i relieased i only set it to 10gb abd i need to resize it, is this possible? please help

this should help :)
good luck :popcorn:
edit! You could always try backing up your /home partition, making a list of your installed packages (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=261366) and reinstalling Wubi with a bigger chunk of the disk.

thank you, i got it, but does the size you make your wubi virtual partition (say 15gb), take up 15 gb on the hdd, or is it like a compressed image?
