How to use Parted Magic

Attention: With dual-boot installations the FIRST partition is always the Windows partition, so don't remove that if you want to keep Windows.
  1. At startup, press F12 to boot from the network.
  2. From the menu, choose Maintenance.
  3. Select Parted Magic and wait for it to start.
  4. On the desktop that appears, there should be a program called Partition Editor, open it.

Here you can now Add, Delete, Resize, Rename, Format, etc., partitions on your harddrive, by simply selecting the partition and editing it the way you want. Parted Magic has a great usage manual on their website here.
