Thread: increase root partition inside an extended one


hello,
don't have enough space in root partition upgrade. have home,root , swap partition (in order) inside extended partition.
here fdisk -l:
device boot start end blocks id system
/dev/sda1 * 1 3891 31254426 7 hpfs/ntfs
/dev/sda2 3892 4864 7815622+ 83 linux
/dev/sda3 4865 38913 273498592+ 5 extended
/dev/sda5 4865 36960 257811088+ 83 linux
/dev/sda6 36961 38662 13671283+ 83 linux
/dev/sda7 38663 38913 2016126 82 linux swap / solaris

don't worry sda1 (windows) , sda2 .
home, root , swap partition sda5,6,7 respectively.
possible annex space home partition without destroying data there?

lot

you can resize partition if not mounted ( boot on livecd); root need @ least 10 gb

can make room using bleachbit or simply: clean/autoclean/autoremove
