    I have a FAT partition that is approximatley 6 GB in size and I want to delete
    it and then make my linux partition larger by taking up the free space.

    I have never used parted and I am not even sure I can do this with parted.
    Would it be better to wait until the next reinstallation of Linux and then do
    it? I have looked around for "Parted for Dummies" but have not found such
    documentation. It seems to me that I would need to put parted on a bootable
    disk of some sort in order to do it, since I probably can't resize a mounted
    partition.

    Any ideas?
