My parents bought a new hard drive for a laptop that I've owned for several years. It's much larger than the current one, so I plan on splitting it up to dual boot it with Ubuntu.
I have no problem with partitioning a drive (I always keep a LiveCD handy), but my question is this: how can I go about…

Hello, everyone
I have a block device (/dev/sda5) that has been partitioned inside by a virtual machine. So, when I look inside with fdisk /dev/sda5, I see:
