Using GParted to adjust the expansion of Linux partitions

Using GParted to adjust the expansion of Linux partitions

when the hard disk uses Standardpartition, instead of LVM partitioning, it is very inconvenient for the subsequent expansion of hard disk space.

System environment: Centos 6.9 x64

This document environment is Centos 6.9, is the use of the standard partition Partitioning method, it can only be adjacent to the free partition near sda5 space to grow, for the former sda2 powerless.

Partition Structure Description (command lsblk view):

Sda1/root 500M

Sda2/opt 20G

Sda3 Swap 4G

SDA4 Extended Partition

sda5/40g

Operation Steps:

1, First in the centos6.9 , use the command CFDISK/DEV/SDA to create a partition of the free space,(Write) after saving reboot re-boot and enter the Centos system again.

2. Boot with gparted-live-0.28.1-1-amd64.iso disc or boot gparted-live from PXE.
