Hi I have a 20 GB partition for / and 14 GB for /home. I want to shrink C:/ to 20 GB and add each 10 GB to / and /home. But I cannot do this as if I shrink C drive, the unallocated 20 GB is cannot be added to either / or /home. For more info I am telling that 4 drives are extended partition and the rest is primary. So how to extend this partition?

I have done this many times and the best way is to either boot Ubuntu from live CD or from HDD.



then make sure everything needed is install.



sudo apt-get install gparted ntfsprogs

Open Gparted , make sure C: is unmounted.



click and select resize , then apply.



after doing this you will need to be on a Live CD.



to resize your / & /home partitions
