heyster Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Does anyone have a easy and forward workaround how to create with the disk utility a second partition without data loss? I did try the search but that has as result many 'think you should' and 'use gparted'.

heyster Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share Posted May 25, 2008 This is how I spend my morning. Before I started my Lenovo I took a meditatian moment for a prayer. Then I booted with my Hardy CD and started Gparded. It needed ~1 hour to move the data to the left, and creat the new partition. I hovered the apartment and continued my prayer. Hardy resized the existing partition and activated the new Fat32 part. As we speak it makes a Time machine backup on the new partition. After all I finished something whithout needing to re-install! It is my lucky day :-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/106573-resize-internal-hard-disk/#findComment-758151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
