[09:32] <somethinginteres> Anyone here a Gparted ninja? 
[09:33] <somethinginteres> I discovered today to my horror that my root partition is only 10GB and keep getting errors about it being full. I have tons of free space I could give to / from my /home partition I'm just not sure how to go about it. 
[09:34] <nisshh> somethinginteres, easy, backup /home, shrink it a bit, grow /
[09:35] <somethinginteres> nisshh: when I shrink it by say 100GB that 100GB becomes unallocated I can't figure out how to give that then unallocated space back to /
[09:36] <nisshh> somethinginteres, i cant remember how its done in the GUI, but just have a poke around, it isnt hard to do, you just need to grow the / partition
[09:36] <nisshh> somethinginteres, sorry i cant help more, im kind of busy atm
[09:37] <somethinginteres> nisshh: no worries, I've been looking around but I'll keep on doing that. 
[09:37] <nisshh> cool
[09:42] <somethinginteres> nisshh: gonna take about 20min to copy over for safe keeping, better safe than sorry though :) 
[09:42] <nisshh> somethinginteres, yeah, thats exactly why i suggested it :)
[10:17] <somethinginteres> nisshh: everything's backed up. 40GB is marked as unallocated but gparted just won't let me give that space to the root partition. It just autochanges the size back to 10GB
[10:17] <nisshh> somethinginteres, yeah, i dunno, i think there is a resize option, try that
[11:59] <somethinginteres> nisshh: finally got it work, did not forsee it taking 4hrs though 
[12:02]  * Blank___ is having fun with hard drive cloning and stubborn windows
[12:11] <somethinginteres> Blank___: yeah that sounds enthralling :)
[12:12] <Blank___> somethinginteres, you bet >.<
[12:13] <somethinginteres> Blank___: thank goodness for livecds that's all I can say. At least while the comp is doing stuff -I- can be doing stuff
[12:26] <Blank___> somethinginteres, indeed...
