If you wanted to take the path of least resistance, you would: 1. Boot with a rescue CD. 2. Run parted. 3. Print (display) the current partition info. Useful to use exact numbers instead of approximating. 4. Delete /dev/sda4. 5. Move /dev/sda3 to the end of the disk. 6. Resize /dev/sda2 to take up all available space. 7. Reboot normally.
