GParted is stuck on the shrinking step for the last 25 hours trying to shrink my 442GB Windows 8 oartition to 426GB. This partition is on my SATA HDD and I aḿ only modifying the end of the partition in order to put my new Ubuntu after it.
Should I just keep waiting or is there anything else I can do to speed up or cancel (without data loss) the process?
EDIT:
Gparted is still running, here's the current state from top
:
15773 - root - 20 - 0 - 454m - 25m - 19m - R - 1,7 - 0,2 - 44:14.40 gpartedbin
So it looks to me it's still doing something isn't it? What's worrying me (but I'm surely mistaken there) is that glances
doesn't notice anything happening on the HDD (IN and OUT) and there are those A_DENY
on the gpartedbin
line for the columns IO_R and IO_W (respectively read and write I guess?).
