Now recently I decided to move on to Win7 and get rid of the old WinXP partition altogether, and then add the remaining space to the Win7 partition. Naturally the process involved moving the Win7 partition, and when I checked, it didn't boot! I decided that it was probably just bad luck, reinstalled it since it didn't have much on it anyway and continued using XP as my primary OS. Then I realised that I didn't allocate enough space for my WinXP installation, so I used GPartEd to take some space from my logical partitions. XP was on the first primary partition, Win7 was on the second primary partition, GRUB boot loader was on the third primary partition and openSUSE with all its partitions was on an extended partition. At first I had a triple boot setup - openSUSE, WinXP and Win7. However, I recently moved from Windows XP to Windows 7, and that's where the problems began. I've been using the GParted LiveCD for a while now for all my partitioning needs and so far it was a really great tool.
