How to use unused space in ubuntu
- by Ravi.Kumar
I installed ubuntu on my machine with only 80 GB of memory anticipating that I will remove it later but now I want to keep it forever (until I am frustrated with linux). I have 500 GB in my machine and now I want to use that raw 420 GB of space. How I can I do that ?
with "space/memory" I am referring to secondary memory not Ram.
Here is output of :
sudo fdisk -l
