^zenyhooubby-itI don't know how add not-allocated space to the ubuntu 10.04 ext3 partition using gparted. Can you help me please? THanks :-)17:17
holstein^zenyhooubby-it: you want to do that from a live CD... you can try with gparted... i would have all data backed up, and consider just making a partition there on the unused space17:19
^zenyhooubby-itholstein: CD reader is bugged... I succeded to create new partitions and not-allocated space with gparted, but I simply don't know how to add space to partition. I already have 3 partition in 60 gb of space! XD Another one isn't so good for my old pc :-)17:29
holstein^zenyhooubby-it: you can take the drive to another machine.. you can USB boot...17:29
holstein^zenyhooubby-it: you wont, and shouldnt, be resizing on the system like you want to while its mounted17:30
bobweaverikonia:  it goes mint then ubuntu then debian then debian again17:31

^zenyhooubby-itso how can I do it, holstein? Why I need cd/usb? HOw can I unmount the partition that I want to enlarge?17:37
holstein^zenyhooubby-it: you can do it from a live CD... that can be running on a live USB stick.. OR, you can take the hard drive out of the machine, and mount it on another one running gparted17:38
holsteinyou cant boot up the machine, and unmount the system partion, and resize it17:38
^zenyhooubby-itthere is some way to edit ubuntu partition with ubuntu? provisory mode or similars...17:41
holstein^zenyhooubby-it: no that im aware of... i *always* just use a live CD.. or take the hard drive to another machine...17:42
^zenyhooubby-itunlucly I can't use cd or usb, as I told before17:42
holsteinright... you take the hard drive to another box17:42

hobgoblinbobweaver: what you trying to do - sort grub order out?17:44
holstein^zenyhooubby-it: not that im aware of.. you need to unmount partitions to resize them, and XP has no partion management like that that im aware of17:45

bennettwriteI'm running Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop on an old server. The Ubuntu OS is running on a 250Gb hard drive and the files I want to share on on a second 1Tb hard drive mounted in the server.  I've mounted the 1Tb drive to /media/New Volume in Ubuntu and shared it. But because it is mounted under media my Windows Vista machines can't see the correct file path since it seems I can't share /media...Any advice?18:18
AJH101Thanks18:20
