[Gllug] resize linux / ntfs partiton

[Pete Stean]

back on topic, gparted is definitely your friend - it should allow you
to resize with no problems at all. It might take quite a while to
complete however, so try and find a nice book to read or a movie to
watch while it goes off and does its work (will stop you being tempted
into fiddling with it  :)   ) - I've known it to take a few hours to
resize a sizeable XP partition on a big disc...
