Hi,
Well, if you find your Bootcamp/NTFS/Windows partition running out of space, you may want to increase it or decrease it. The OSX Bootcamp utility doesn't allow resizing the NTFS partitio nor does Disk Utility. Here is a free solution ...
NOTE: I've tried this on Windows 7 64bit, but it should work with other windows setups in a similar manner.
Requirements:
1. SysRescueCD (for an NTFS capable 'gparted')
- http://www.sysresccd.org/Download
2. rEFIt bootable CD (or install to hard disk, doesn't matter)
- http://refit.sourceforge.net/doc/c1s5_burning.html
3. Windows XP/Vista/7 CD (depends what you've installed)
- just for a quick 'repair' at the end, no reinstall here!
In short:
1 Shrink Mac partition in OSX's Disk Utility
2 Grow the NTFS partition in gparted booting off sysrescue CD (reboot->option key). This may take 30mins to a few hours to complete!
3 Boot the rEFIt CD -> choose 'start partitioning tool' -> hit yes when it says it needs to sync the MBR with the GPT.
4 Boot your Windows CD.
Vista/Windows7 CD -> hit the repair option to fix the boot record.
XP CD -> you may need to go to the administrative shell and type fixboot and then fixmbr.
5. Reboot and you should be able to boot into Windows via the option key as before. I liked rEFIt a lot so I installed it to my disk itself. (FYI, I did notice I needed to install rEFIt a few times to get it to show up during boot time)
