[newbie] Removing a windows partition

[Eric Mings]

I originally setup my disk with both linux and a windows partition. I am 
no longer using windows on this machine and would like to remove the 
partition without risk of damaging my linux data. Ideally I would like to 
be able to expand one of my linux partitions to take advantage of the new 
space, however making a new linux partition would be an acceptable option 
as well. How can I do this without the possibility of damaging my linux 
system data? Thanks.
