Hello friends,
I encounter some difficulties when trying to resize my Ubuntu Partition with gparted.
i have Ubuntu running on a SSD with 120 GB (dev/sdb3) where I still have a Windows 7 Partition.
I followed the instructions provided here and logged in with Ubuntu from a Pendrive.
Shrinking the Windows Partition was no problem but when trying to increase the Ubuntu partition I encountered the following error:
The situation is similar as described here, but still I couldn't find any further instructions how to solve this...Most people just simply switched to other tools mainly MS Software solutions...
Has anybody expirienced similar problems?
