    Hi I have an external HD.

    I have one 133Gb partition with data on and also a 20GB partition which now has nothing on it. I want to add the empty space of the 2nd partition on to the first one so i just have onee big partition of thw whole disk.

    I have a dual boot of Windows XP and Fedora core 6 so if you can help me do this in either operaing sytstem that would be great.

    I though it would be obvious but, to me, it isn't!

    Cheers,

    DAve
