NEW! Download Gparted

Hello,

I often use gparted to visualize the partition scheme of a drive. Today I tried to view an external 320GB drive, but gparted believes the file system is iso9660 with label ARCH_201302

I have no idea how gparted came up with this erroneous information. Gparted recognized the internal hard drive correctly.

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.

I successfully installed GParted in NixOS. When I run it from the start menu, nothing happens. When I run the command gparted in the terminal, it produces an error 'Gtk-WARNING: cannot open display:'

My experience is that when gparted takes a long time, the problem is always that there is something wrong with the medium. In fact, I use it as one of my tests when someone reports problems with a medium.

Just to note, we are not actually performing and moves or resizes at this point, we are simply just creating a chain of commands that gparted will follow once it is applied. You can either apply at the end of each step, or wait till the bitter end and do it, its up to you. Either way when you are done, you should see your unallocated space move into /dev/sda2 as shown below.

gparted reported success when I expanded a partition on my fedora 17 box (running under vmware on a win7-64 machine). However, df still reports the smaller size, as does the graphical disk usage analyzer utility. Is there a final step I need to perform?

gparted might be easy to compile on Cygwin, but it might not support Windows device identifiers, unless cygwin handles those automatically. It should, in that case, be a quick recompile - I do not believe a binary package for gparted is offered at this time.

I allocated more space to a VMware hard disk. I used gparted to expand the disk. When I boot the server back up, I don't see the extra space. It was originally 75GB. Now it's 120GB. The partition didn't expand but I do see it using lsblk.

I agree, additionally having gparted in the live session is nice since one usually makes changes to partitions using a live session. Gnome disks could be seen as a replacement of the ubuntu disk creator but not gparted IMO.

Personally I like both tools, but for different reasons. If I am giving someone less on the tech side of things, I make sure they have disks. At most, people need to ID a device as the one they want to work with and at most, install a single partition maybe two? onto a disk of some sort. My experience says those people are going to be using external hard drives and flash drives for backing up. If I am going to do something more complex with a disk that command line tools are not going to be fast enough for, I always default to gparted. Most of my gparted usage on a monthly basis is going to be for data recovery or repair of corrupted data on customer drives. In that case gparted is my tool of choice. I prefer the data overload on the screen to make sure I am certain I did the right thing before applying the changes

This one can be corrected with xhost, but ideally I would have liked a solution less dangerous security-wise than xhost si:localuser:root && sudo sudo; sudo gparted & sleep 1 && xhost -si:localuser:root, and it takes root environment who is, if not already configured, quite not adapted to graphical parameters of the current user WM 2351a5e196
