mara- Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 You can try with Norton Partition Manager, but it is not free.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponch Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 To my knowledge there is no straight way to do this. You'll have a few choices, you just need to understand the concept. Either you move all the data to the 1st partition then increase its size to full disk, either you move a bit to disk 1 (if there is not enough space on partition1) then proceed as well. In a few words, to get rid of a partition, you'll need to empty it first. There is NO MERGE.An excellent freeware for this is GPartEd (Gnome Partition Editor, boot CD). Search, you can download an iso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
