Hi all, I have a HDD (the only one, in fact) with the following layout , as reported by df :

/dev/sda2              99G  886M   93G   1% /
/dev/sda1             2.0G  170M  1.8G   9% /boot
/dev/sda5             345G  232G   96G  71% /home
/dev/sda8              29G  172M   27G   1% /tmp
/dev/sda6              59G  5.2G   54G   9% /usr
/dev/sda7              20G  3.1G   17G  16% /var

Now, at the end, I have some 137 GB unpartitioned/unformatted. How can I use this free space, since gparted ran from a LiveCD tells me that I need to make a logical partition (which is /dev/sda4) in order to create partitions anew in that free space. It's probably lack of sleep, but please help me out here. :)


You're worried that that a mass renaming of partition numbers will cause your system to not reboot? That's why LABEL and UUID are now used in grub (lilo is restricted to device names) and fstab.
