Adjust Partitions in Ubuntu on the fly

In Windows, we can resize, create or remove a partition with Symanted Partition Magic while Windows is still running. In Ubuntu, this could also be done, with a tool called GParted.

Install with command

sudo apt-get install gparted

If your machine has NTfS partitions, you need to install package “ntfsprogs” too. Otherwise GParted won’t recognize the partition. The command to install ntfsprogs is similar:

sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs

Now, you can use “sudo gparted” to check and adjust your disk partitions.
