I'm running a dual boot of Ubuntu & Windows XP. Now at the time of installation of Ubuntu, I'd not given the linux partition a whole lot of space (just 3.5GB!). Now that I'm using linux more as my primary OS, I'm running out of space!

Now I have partition magic in windows. Can I use it to resize the partitions, as in to increase the size of the linux partition? Will it cause me to loose my data?

If not, how do I go about it?

Cheers
Aditya
