[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 846691, member: 323322"] Elsewhere, I mentioned I have just done a full-disc clean install of Crunchbang on SWMBO's Laptop. As I had also got the original Crunchbang running in Dual Boot with Win 7 on my Netbook and have since added Mint too, I decided I'd get rid of Crunchbang on the Netbook and just leave Win 7 and Mint. So I removed the Crunchbang Partition from the Disk (sic) Utility in Mint and that was fine until I rebooted and Grub adamantly refusing to acknowledge any Operating System at all. I discovered on the Interweb thingy some nice USB Bootable Tools which got me up and running in no time. Emboldened by my apparent genius, I now want to acquire the free space left by the demise of Crunchbang and also to pinch a bit of my Windows Partition. So I've got a Live GParted USB Stick and am about to attempt the deed. I may be gone some time! (If I do bu**er it up, all is Backed Up and I'm happy to do a full-disc clean install of Mint. Although I'd prefer to retain Windows if possible - just in case) [/QUOTE]
