Hello everyone,

I am running KDE Neon as my sole operating system on my current hard drive. I would like to shrink the primary partition and leave 100 GB of unallocated space, possibly for other operating systems. I tried KDE Partition Manager, but it won't let me resize the partition. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Operating System: KDE neon 5.18
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70.0
Qt Version: 5.14.2
Kernel Version: 5.3.0-53-generic
OS Type: 64-bit

The partition to resize is not allowed to be mounted, so you can just use a live system on a stick to shrink your root-partition. Do not forget to backup before triggering with system partitions

Thanks for your help. I managed to load KDE Neon via a USB intall, then resize the primary partition. I used KDE Partition Manager to do this.

Cheers.
