Windows expansion of the size of Ubuntu virtual machines

Installing the ubuntu,8g partition on the virtual sub-region is not enough, do not wish to reload, increase the VM partition it! back up virtual hard disc files first

VMware comes with the tool: Find the VMware installation directory Vmware-vdiskmanager.exe, double-click can not open the command line under the line to execute.
vmware-vdiskmanager-x 16Gb D:\Ubuntu10\Ubuntu.vmdk
-x Extended partition
16GB Expansion Size
D:\UBUNTU10\UBUNTU.VMDK virtual Hard tray file

To adjust the partition is to add a section after the original partition:
To have 10G, and new points 16-10=6 GB of space out, the original remains unchanged, the data will not be lost.

After adding the partition, Ubuntu is not recognized and requires format to be downloaded.

FDISK/DEV/SDA

A command appears

Command (M for help):

When you enter N, you become the Command (M for help): n then enter, then an option appears

Command Action
L logical (5 or over)
P primary partition (1-4)

Select P, and then appear

Primary partition (1-4):

At this point you need to check which partition number in your partition is not used, open a terminal, and then enter

sudo fdisk-l

My current list is

/dev/sda1

/dev/sda2

/dev/sda3

/dev/sda5

The Sda3 in this is my new partition, which is not normally added to the area, as shown below

/dev/sda1

/dev/sda2

/dev/sda5

But also do not rule out other circumstances, in fact, the purpose is to see from 1, 2, 3, 4 to choose a number that is not used

I didn't use the number 3rd before, so I chose number 3rd.

In primary partition (1-4): After input 3 also namely primary partition (1-4): 3 then enter

Without an error, then it appears again.

Command (M for help):

then enter W

The system can not quickly recognize the new Sda3 so restart, after the start can see if/dev/sda3 exist

Next run the next command

Mkfs.ext3/dev/sda3

To go to the home directory under the Extend file, create a new extend file in the home directory, enter the following command in the terminal

sudo gedit/etc/fstab

Add the following content
/dev/sda3/home/extend ext3 Defaults 1 2

Restart, use the parser to see the new partition size
