I want to use the remaining free space on my hard drive, however there's a problem:
Running cfdisk
outputs:
Label: gpt, identifier: CEE38D42-DBB8-4F74-ADA6-1BC2A5E46AE1
Device Start End Sectors Size Type
>> /dev/sda1 2048 41945087 41943040 20G Linux swap
Free space 41945088 1002151935 960206848 457.9G

/dev/sda6 1003792384 1953525134 949732751 452.9G Linux filesystem
As you can see, there's 457.9G of unused free space, which I see as a waste. Therefore I am trying to combine it with my Linux filesystem partition (sda6
). However, they aren't right next to each other. Is there a safe way to "move" the free space to increase the size of the sda6
partition?
