Did a quick search and didn't see anything that could answer my question, so I thought I'd try here.
Have an older gaming system (laptop) ASUS G60V.
Running Windows 7 on one partition and 12.04 on the other.
Decided to get rid of Windows. Want to merge the partition into one.
In the process of creating a recovery disk for the Windows partition (just in case, you never know - only costs a few blank DVDs).
I have been playing around with trying to do this on my desktop - that is merge partitions into one, but haven't had much like. I get end up with a formatted "Storage" drive.
Any ideas on how to do this properly? Again I am not looking for two separate drives here.
Simply what I want to do is the following:
Currently - Linux on one 150 gig partition // Windows on the other 150 gig partition.
Format over Windows and combine the partitions so that I end up with a 300 gig drive all Linux.
Thanks
