Hello,
My hard drive has WinXP (still needed for work on old projects) and Ubuntu. Ubuntu is on /dev/sda5 and is 19.06 GB (please see attached screenshots from GParted). There is unallocated space of 52.18 GB before the Ubuntu partition. I tried resizing the Ubuntu partition to take up the unallocated space but it doesn't work. How can I get Ubuntu to absorb the unallocated space into its partition?
The screenshots were taken from a LiveUSB distro with GParted.
Thanks very much!
