Out of space

[Richard Barmann]

Using the following information can you give me a step by step to#1 
remove the ububtu 15,05 #2 move the ubuntu 16.04 that is on sdb8 to give 
it more room. (If you think it is necessary after the kernels have been 
removed) and #3 adding the Windows XP from my CD (picking the place to 
put it and a boot that it will ask for about 3/4 way into the install)

Will they all show in GRUB so I can open them?

Thanks for all the help today. I found a set of four books on Linux in 
my old files that I will read.

Dick.
