I would like to change the size of my ubuntu partition /dev/sda8. I am in this configuration: My config

Unhappily, I can not manually use the unallocated memory of 56 GB. Hence I have two questions : why? And how can I use this available memory to increase my partition's size anyway?

Follow these steps :

  1. Boot from a LiveUSB or CD in "Try Ubuntu" mode.
  2. Open Gparted partiotion editor (It is installed by default. If not you can install it by using the command sudo apt-get install gparted)
  3. Resize your partitions.
    • Right click on the partition to be resized
    • Click on Resize/Move
    • Adjust the size of the partition
    • Click Resize/Move
  4. Click apply.
  5. Reboot and take out the USB stick or CD.

You can also do this by using Gparted live.
