<div>Original question</div><div></div><div>I read about the latest gparted, and saw this article explaining how to install it on a hard drive. Seemed like it would be a good way to both try it out and have it available, but I've been unable to get it to work. No matter what I've done, I get an immediate reboot.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>download gparted live usb iso</div><div></div><div>DOWNLOAD:

I originally renamed the /live directory to /live-hd, as suggested, but later changed it back, because their directions seemed to sometimes get it wrong, so I didn't want to second-guess possible errors. But I got the same results either way.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Have you tried to install gparted on the OMV system? Does not work. You can download the ISO and boot into gparted from omv-extras. But you would only have to do this if you want to resize your OS partition.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I have a VMWare Player virtual machine where I am trying to change partitions of my Windows 7 VM hardrive using GParted. I downloaded a GParted live CD from here. I tried this with both *-i686 and *-amd64 versions.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I recently decided to expand the virtual drive for a Linux VM running in VMPlayer in Windows 7. The last step is to modify partitions using a 3rd party software: GParted. In principle, GParted should be started from a live CD in the virtual machine (can't modify partitions in use). To achieve this:</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>After reading your response, I downloaded the latest stable version of gParted (gparted-live-0.16.1-1-i486.iso), verified the checksum and attached it to a VM in VMware Player. After hitting "ESC" and selecting the CD-ROM drive to boot from, gParted booted without issues.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I burned the gparted iso to a physical disk, then switched the VM CD/DVD to physical drive auto-detect. The VM found the cd/dvd, connected, and quick as a flash ... I got the grub bootloader menu. So:</div><div></div><div></div><div>[SOLVED] Used old Knoppix CD and CD/DVD, boot was successful and altered partitions. Support suspicions that checksums on my downloads of gparted were incorrect were right on. Two downloads were corrupted (a problem for another day). Tnx for the quick responses!</div><div></div><div></div><div>There is an icon on desktop for "Ubuntu Software Center", if I open it - it states that gparted is installed, but there is no icon to launch gparted on desktop. Also there is no menu with installed programs.Also there is no icon to start terminal.</div><div></div><div></div><div>You might simply boot the live install media, download and install gparted into that environment (easily done with dnf), then use gparted to resize the partitions. Shrink /home and leave the free space next to /, then expand / into the newlly available space. You cannot shrink a partition while the file system is mounted, but booting to the live install media avoids those issues.</div><div></div><div> df19127ead</div>
