I had 128GB free space from a previous Windows installed that I removed recently and while trying to move that space into the Linux filesystem partition I accidentally put it into the EFI partition and now I can't undo it. I need some help to remove that extra space and if possible a solution for fusing the free space with the filesystem partition already existing.

EDIT:

parted

  • You cannot edit mounted partitions, so you have to use live installer. The ESP can be 300 to 500MB, Windows often uses 100MB which is a bit small but works if just two installs. post this: sudo parted -l – oldfred Sep 22 '20 at 14:22

    Does this answer your question? How to resize partitions? – karel Sep 22 '20 at 15:00

    Better to post terminal output as text, code, not as graphic. Normally the ESP is first partition, but since smaller drive its ok. You will have to shrink left, move right & then can expand ext4 partition. Do each step in gparted from live installer, do not queue steps. – oldfred Sep 22 '20 at 15:39
  • Can you explain me how to do this ? – Sizzraw Oct 08 '20 at 21:47
