I created a VM using VirtualBox and realized it was small. So, i managed (after some time) to create a new, bigger HD.

Now I need to integrate the unallocated space to the /dev/sda5 partition.

• Right clicking on sda5 shows the option to resize but I dont get any free space before or after.
• I though that maybe I need to extend the sda2 partition first but right clicking on sda2 does not allow me to resize.

Do you have any useful advice? Thanks in advance.

*In case the image disappears at some point here is a textual representation of the GParted GUI info:
/dev/sda1 ext2 /dev/sda2 extended /dev/sda5 lvm2 pv unallocated
