Thread: Merging unallocated space with Ubuntu


community,
confused on how merge unallocated space ubuntu partition of hard drive. dual boot windows , ubuntu , decided since use ubuntu more going need more space. shrunk windows partition using gparted , im left 45gb of unallocated space. how 50gb ubuntu partition out doing fresh install of ubuntu?

have enclosed screenshots of gparted if help
attached images attached images

you not seem running out of space still have 63 gigs left on sda6. have 4gb swap - tad bit big.

since use windows, want think converting unallocated partition ntfs or fat32 partition? allow share data between 2 oss'.

other thing convert unallocated partition ext4 house /home filesystem. way, future upgrades happen on sda6 leaving /home , settings undisturbed

if still decide merge existing ubuntu partition, have boot ubuntu livecd , use gparted there. can refer manual on how this. overall method highlight extended partition (/dev/sda2) on list , move left till occupies empty space fully.
