On this note, I'm trying to give some of the free space on my NTFS partition to my Ubuntu ext3 partition and can't figure it out. With gparted, I only have the option to format the partition.
Here's a screenshot of what my partitioning looks like: http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/4GCl-te5MkzI21riH0KHhQ I have Vista installed on my NTFS partition and would like to keep it and avoid destroying it and re-installing windows if possible. Is it possible to do this with Gparted or possibly another utility? And if so, what is the potential for data loss?
