partition management in linux

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,


I got an additional harddrive installed in my machine.

The drive is split into two partitions.

hdb5 fat32 empty
hdb6 ext3 ~80% full

both are created inside the extended partition so they are secondary partitions. The goal is to delete the fat32 partition and extend the ext3 partition to the whole drive without losing the data. There is no way for me to backup this data - it is 200Gb drive. Neither gparted nor qtparted cannot handle this task (I assume these are based on the same lib). Presumably, parted will fail as well.

Is there any tool for linux (preferably opensource) that is capable of accomplishing of this task?

thank you in advance
