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, reor-
     ganizing, 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 de-
     vice 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 online
     at:
     https://gparted.org

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

     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 unmounting
     partitions outside of the gparted application while gparted is running.

     You are advised to BACKUP your DATA before using the gparted application.
