So, after all my OS problems, I installed Vista onto a 6.18 GB partition.
Later on, I realized that won't be anywhere near enough space.

So, I used GParted to shrink a different partition down 10GB, freeing up 10GB to add to the 6.18GB partition my OS is on. After it shrank, It showed that it had freed up 10GB. But when I went to make the size of my small partition bigger, it wouldn't let me. It would allow me to make 2 different partitions bigger, but not the one I needed.

So, anyone know how I can add those 10GB to the 6.18GB partition and make it bigger?
And yes, all these partitions are on the same HDD.

$su -c 'rm -rf /user/home/whitty'

You are probably stupid and formatted the drive as NTFS, because you are a luser and don't know better. Reformat and reinstall as ext3.

I'm not going to reformat anything. And why is that thing "resize linux partition"?

Thor's an idiot and gparted doesn't support ntfs. Google partition magic.

Solved by deleting my recovery drive and adding on the space it took up.
