I tried to resize (grow) a NTFS partition last week using the latest gparted
Live-CD image and it failed. The partition itself was resized but the
filesystem could not. It was shown in gparted and Windows disk manager with the
new partition size but the filesystem still showed the same amount of free/busy
blocks as before. A manual chkdsk was not able to correct this. So it at least
has a problem with certain NTFS operations.
Best regards,
Reiner.

Latest gparted (http://gparted.sourceforge.net/features.php) supports
NTFS it.
It's not yet into Debian.
You should use it really carefully because I consider it's not
completely stable.
You could use their live-CD or live-USB

Hello,
I have bought a laptop acer aspire 5102 wlmi_cx1012 and I plane
to resize the partition windows with gparted (using a live-CD knoppix), but man
gparted says :
Parted can also detect and remove HFS (Mac OS), JFS, NTFS,
UFS (Sun and HP), XFS and ASFS/AFFS/APFS (Amiga) filesystems,
but cannot create, resize or check these filesystems yet.
^^^^^^ Can anyone tell me if there is a
linux tool which can resize NTFS
partition or otherwise does exist a tool free which can do that
?
