Re: [Question #78766]: used up too much memory space

 

Question #78766 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/78766

Tom proposed the following answer:
Yes, LiveCd it to add a new partition at the very front of your drive.
Just a tiny Primary Partition of 1.5Gb and set it's "file-system" to
"linux-swap". Please let us know what GPartEd shows in it's bottom half
where all the addresses and values are written.

So we get

sda2 1.5Gb Primary Partition for 'file-system' =  linux-swap
unallocated
sda1 large Primary Partition with all your data on it so no changes to this one

Thanks, good luck and regards from
Tom :)
