.TH GPARTED 8 "APRIL 14th, 2008" gparted "GParted Manual"
|
||||||
|
.SH NAME
|
||||||
|
gparted \- Front-end to parted for manipulating disk partitions
|
||||||
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||||||
|
.B gparted [device]...
|
||||||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||||
|
.B gparted
|
||||||
|
is the Gnome Partition Editor
|
||||||
|
for creating, reorganizing, and deleting disk partitions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A hard disk is usually subdivided into one or more partitions.
|
||||||
|
These partitions are normally not re-sizable
|
||||||
|
(making one smaller and the adjacent one larger.)
|
||||||
|
.B gparted
|
||||||
|
makes it possible for you to take a hard disk
|
||||||
|
and change the partition organization,
|
||||||
|
while preserving the partition contents.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
More specifically,
|
||||||
|
.B gparted
|
||||||
|
enables you to create, destroy, resize, move,
|
||||||
|
check, label, and copy partitions, and the file systems contained within.
|
||||||
|
This is useful for
|
||||||
|
creating space for new operating systems,
|
||||||
|
reorganizing disk usage,
|
||||||
|
and mirroring one partition with another (disk imaging).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.B gparted
|
||||||
|
uses GNU libparted to detect and manipulate devices and partition tables.
|
||||||
|
Several optional packages provide additional file system support.
|
||||||
|
Optional packages include:
|
||||||
|
.br
|
||||||
|
e2fsprogs, dosfstools, mtools, hfsutils, jfsutils,
|
||||||
|
.br
|
||||||
|
ntfsprogs, reiser4progs, reiserfsprogs, and xfsprogs.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.B gparted
|
||||||
|
can also be used with storage devices other than hard disks, such as
|
||||||
|
USB flash drives, and memory cards.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
||||||
|
For a hard drive attached as /dev/sda,
|
||||||
|
.B gparted
|
||||||
|
can be instructed to limit operations to this drive only with the
|
||||||
|
following:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.B gparted
|
||||||
|
/dev/sda
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This can save time with subsequent device refreshes, such as after
|
||||||
|
operations are applied.
|
||||||
|
.SH NOTES
|
||||||
|
When resizing a logical partition within an extended partition,
|
||||||
|
remember that each portion is resized independently.
|
||||||
|
Hence shrinking the left-most logical partition
|
||||||
|
by moving the left edge to the right will shrink only the logical
|
||||||
|
partition. If you desire to free the space for an adjacent primary
|
||||||
|
partition, then you must also shrink the extended partition.
