GPARTED ======= Gparted is the Gnome Partition Editor for creating, reorganizing, and deleting disk partitions. A hard disk is usually subdivided into one or more partitions. These partitions are normally not re-sizable (making one smaller and the adjacent one larger.) Gparted makes it possible for you to take a hard disk and change the partition organization, while preserving the partition contents. More specifically, Gparted enables you to create, destroy, resize, move, check, label, and copy partitions, and the file systems contained within. This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, and mirroring one partition with another (disk imaging). Gparted can also be used with storage devices other than hard disks, such as USB flash drives, and memory cards. Visit http://gparted.org for more information. NEWS ---- Information about changes to this release, and past releases can be found in the file: NEWS INSTALL ------- a. Pre-built Binary Many GNU/Linux distributions already provide a pre-built binary package for GParted. Instructions on how to install GParted on some distributions is given below: (K)Ubuntu or Debian ------------------- sudo apt-get install gparted Fedora ------ su - yum install gparted b. Building from Source Building Gparted from source requires that several dependencies are installed. These include: g++ e2fsprogs parted gtkmm24 gettext gnome-doc-utils - required if help documentation is to be built On (K)Ubuntu, these dependencies may be obtained by running the following command; sudo apt-get install build-essential e2fsprogs uuid uuid-dev \ gnome-common libparted-dev libgtkmm-2.4-dev \ libdevmapper-dev gnome-doc-utils On Fedora, you will need to run (as root); yum install gtkmm24-devel parted-devel e2fsprogs-devel gettext \ 'perl(XML::Parser)' desktop-file-utils libuuid-devel \ gnome-doc-utils rarian-compat yum groupinstall 'Development Tools' On openSUSE, these dependencies may be obtained by running the following command; sudo zypper install automake autoconf gcc-g++ make gnome-common \ libuuid-devel parted-devel gtkmm2-devel \ gnome-doc-utils-devel Briefly, the shell commands `./configure; make; make install' should configure, build, and install this package. If you wish to build this package without the help documentation use the --disable-doc flag: E.g., ./configure --disable-doc If you wish to build this package for use on a desktop that does not support scrollkeeper use the --disable-scrollkeeper flag: E.g., ./configure --disable-scrollkeeper If you wish to build this package to use native libparted /dev/mapper dmraid support use the --enable-libparted-dmraid flag: E.g., ./configure --enable-libparted-dmraid Please note that more than one configure flags can be used: E.g., ./configure --disable-doc --enable-libparted-dmraid The INSTALL file contains further GNU installation instructions. COPYING ------- The copying conditions can be found in the file: COPYING DIRECTORIES ------------ compose - contains String::ucompose() function data - contains desktop icons doc - contains manual page documentation help - contains GParted Manual and international translations include - contains source header files m4 - contains macro files po - contains international language translations src - contains C++ source code DISTRIBUTION NOTES ------------------ Gparted uses GNU libparted to detect and manipulate devices and partition tables. Several optional packages provide additional file system support. Optional packages include: btrfs-tools e2fsprogs dosfstools mtools - required to read and write FAT16/32 volume labels and UUIDs hfsutils hfsprogs jfsutils nilfs-utils ntfsprogs / ntfs-3g reiser4progs reiserfsprogs xfsprogs, xfsdump NOTE: * If the vol_id command is in the search PATH, it will be used to read linux-swap, reiser4, hfs, and hfs+ file system volume labels. * If the blkid command is in the search path, it will be used to read file system UUIDs and labels. It is also used for ext4 file system detection. blkid is part of the util-linux package and e2fsprogs package before that. For Linux software RAID support, the following package is required: mdadm - tool to administer Linux MD arrays For dmraid support, the following packages are required: dmsetup - removes /dev/mapper entries dmraid - lists dmraid devices and creates /dev/mapper entries For GNU/Linux distribution dmraid support, the following are required: - kernel built with Device Mapping and Mirroring built. From menuconfig, it is under Device Drivers -> <something> (RAID & LVM). - dmraid drive arrays activated on boot (e.g., dmraid -ay). For LVM2 Physical Volume support the following command is required: lvm - LVM2 administration tool And device-mapper support in the kernel. For attempt data rescue for lost partitions, the following package is required: gpart - guesses PC-type hard disk partitions Several more commands are optionally used by GParted if found on the system. These commands include: blkid - used to read volume labels and detect ext4 file systems vol_id - used to read volume labels udisks - used to prevent automounting of file systems devkit-disks - used to prevent automounting of file systems {filemanager} - used in attempt data rescue to display discovered file systems. (e.g., nautilus, pcmanfm) hal-lock - used to prevent automounting of file systems gksu - used to acquire root privileges in .desktop file, but only if available when gparted source is configured. udevinfo - used in dmraid to query udev name udevadm - used in dmraid to query udev name yelp - used to display help manual
