Hi all,
when I recently installed Trisquel I chose to dual boot with Ubuntu and now want the Ubuntu totally removed from my desktop. I don't understand how partitioning works. Can someone explain to me how this works in simple terms please?
You can boot a live system with GParted included (such as a Trisquel live system), run this administration program and delete the unnecessary partitions.
Then, I am not 100% sure but I believe you can reboot and the GRUB entry for Trisquel should still work. From a terminal in the Trisquel system, you can then execute:
$ sudo update-grub
That should remove the Ubuntu entry from GRUB.
You can then use again GParted on the live system to enlarge partitions in the space left by the deleted ones (maybe you can even do that in the first place... but let us be safe).
If I am wrong (I do not think so but anyway), i.e., if you cannot reboot the Trisquel system after removing the Ubuntu partitions, then you would have to reinstall GNU GRUB from the live system.
