Don't install it with snap

uneven gull
#

then with what?

orchid bramble
#

apt

warped elm
#

As a system package, it should already be installed

#

Else do sudo apt install gparted

uneven gull
#

aight

#

almost done

#

done

#

now? what

warped elm
#

Open it and start using it to partition your disks

uneven gull
#

ok thx

uneven gull
#

does it have any dependeci?

warped elm
#

If its running then you already have them all installed

uneven gull
#

yeah its running tho i want to take 100 gb from the drive where linux is installed and leave linux with idk 50 or 60 gb but i cant seem to figure out how to do that

warped elm
#

You can't resize partitions that are already mounted, you'll have to make a granted live iso and partition it from that

uneven gull
#

can i dual boot into windows and change stuff from there?

#

would that work?

warped elm
#

Probably, I don't know how to use it's partition manager though so no guarantees

uneven gull
#

ahh ok

#

still thank you a lot
