Resizing partitions in Suse 10.1



Greetings,
I've got the Suse 10.1 on my Gateway CX2620, and have been using
it quite extensively. It's dual booted with windows xp tablet edition
as the primary hard drive, and Suse 10.1 is in the extended partition
with Reiserfs as the format for / and /home. Grub is the bootloader.
My question is this, I would like to delete the Windows partition
and just use linux. However in Yast it gives me the opportunity to
resize the windows partition and delete it. However, it does not give
me the opportunity with the extended partition, and by inclusion the
linux partitions.
I've thought about Partition Magic by Norton. Anyone have other
ideas. Last time I tried this on a desktop, I hosed the whole shebang
and ended up reinstalling everything-I would like to avoid that
episode again.
Any help would be appreciated.
