GPARTED(8)                      GParted Manual                      GPARTED(8)

NAME
       gparted - GNOME Partition Editor for manipulating disk partitions.

SYNOPSIS
       gparted [device]...

DESCRIPTION
       The gparted application is the GNOME partition editor for creating, re-
       organizing, and deleting disk partitions.

       A  disk  device  can  be  subdivided  into one or more partitions.  The
       gparted application enables you to change the partition organization on
       a disk device while preserving the contents of the partition.

       With gparted you can accomplish the following tasks:
       - Create a partition table on a disk device.
       - Enable and disable partition flags such as boot and hidden.
       - Perform actions with partitions such as create, delete, resize, move,
       check, label, copy, and paste.

       More documentation can be found in the application help manual, and on-
       line at:
       https://gparted.org

EXAMPLES
       You can run gparted from a command line and specify one  or  more  disk
       devices.

       For  example,  to  start gparted with the devices /dev/sda and /dev/sdc
       you would use the following command:

       gparted /dev/sda /dev/sdc

NOTES
       Editing partitions has the potential to cause LOSS of DATA.

       The gparted application is designed to enable you  to  edit  partitions
       while  reducing  the  risk  of data loss.  The application is carefully
       tested and is used by the GParted project team.  However, loss of  data
       might occur due to software bugs, hardware problems, or power failure.

       You  can  help  to  reduce the risk of data loss by not mounting or un-
       mounting partitions outside of the gparted application while gparted is
       running.

       You are advised to BACKUP your DATA before using the  gparted  applica-
       tion.
