I recommend making a backup of your home folder though, regardless of the method you use.]]>

The iPartion bootable CD is important because you can't alter partitions on the same disk your booting off of.
You must boot from the CD to leave your internal disk available for changes.

With iPartion you can move, resize, delete, or just about anything you wish...and any format scheme you like.

I was able to download and register online, didn't have to go anywhere.  http://www.c...artition.php

This FAQ is the same as the help menu.  http://www.c...tion-faq.php]]>

Thanks for the info. I will investigate iPartition immediately.

I am not sure I fully understood what you said, though. Did you use iPartition to get rid of the partition or create a new one? I want to get rid of the second partition. If that is what you did, were you able to keep the partition you had left and just expand it without losing it or without it becoming inoperable?

Since I have a good SuperDuper backup, I am pretty confident that I could just wipe the whole disk and SuperDuper everything back, if necessary, but I would like to avoid that.

What do I need to make a CD for?

Just remember you have to make the bootable cd so you can do the adjustments.]]>
