A new tutorial titled Resizing and Adding Partitions using GParted Live was added by Andrew Lambert AKA Amazing Andrew. Please use this topic to discuss any aspect of this tutorial.
A brief excerpt of the tutorial can be found here:
When you purchase a computer it is not uncommon for the computer's partitions
to be setup in a way that you have a small C: drive and a large D: drive. Over
time you will quickly find that you do not have any free space on your C: drive,
but your D: drive has plenty of space available. As most programs, by default,
are installed in the C drive and because you need space on your C: drive for
certain Windows functions, like printing, you find that your lack of space has
become a problem. What is frustrating is that you have all of this space on
your other partition, but can't use it.
We hope you find this tutorial helpful.
