Subject: Resizing partition
Hello I have osx installed with Ubuntu and am wanting to resize my main ubuntu partition. gparted won’t let me resize my osx partition. Any ideas why or what I should do? Can I resize my osx partition in osx and have more available space be reflected in Ubuntu. Then increase the ubuntu partition?

Reply:  MP did you get this resolved?

I normally boot with a live CD/DVD (the installation DVD) and then verify that there
are not "mounted" partitions on the drive that I am going to modify the partition
table on.

Once this is done, then GParted should work for you.  There is also a liveCD with 
just GParted on it or you could use KNoppix as well.
