Why not use GParted Download an ISO and burn a disk or dongle. (You
cannot run GParted to modify a mounted partition, so even if you have it
on your system, it won't help.)
Then you can move partitions around, shrink one, expand another, etc. It
works really well to modify actual system partitions without wrecking
anything. If it were me, I wouldn't be using
just one partition for everything, I'd have / and /home, but since you
have everything on one partition, just delete the other partition and
expand the one that has everything on it
to fill the space where the empty partition was.
