neil43 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Without the details of your system and existing hard drive partitions there is no specific advice. However Carbon Copy Cloner is your friend. Hard drives are cheap. Clone your install off to another drive and then boot to that clone. Your options at this point are many. Without knowing your existing configuration I can not advise past this point. have fun neil Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/244448-how-to-increase-size-of-my-macosx-drive/#findComment-1626671 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hari.iiitb Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hi neil, Thank you for the suggestion. Here is the partition layout of my pc Drive C - Primary, NTFS - 30 GB (Host: WinXP) Drive D - Primary, HFS+ - 20 GB (Host: Mac OSX 10.6.3) Drive E - Extended, Logical, NTFS - 20 GB Drive F - Extended, Logical, NTFS - 80 GB Kindly let me know what other information you need. I will try the Carbon Copy cloner in the meanwhile.
