sorry if this is in the wrong section, didn't know where else to post.

I have partitioned my hard drive for dual booting ubuntu 11.10 and windows 7. However, I made a stupid mistake. Seeing as windows already took up 3 primary partitions, I created an extension partition (which took up the last of the 4 primary partitions available). Instead of partitioning the rest of the hard drive, I partitioned all but 85ish GB, so now I have 85GB sitting on my hard drive that isnt accessible as I cannot move it to the extension partition or make it a new partition.

So what do I do with the free hard drive space now? I really can't be bothered doing a whole new installation of windows as I will have to restore windows after I delete the partition ubuntu sits on and recreate windows 7 from the disk image etc etc.

Help will be much appreciated,

Latham
