Hello guys wishing you all a good day,
I have a friend who installed Linux a couple of months ago (I think it is Mint cinnamon *guess so*) but he is running out of low space in both his /root and /home partition.
So yesterday he contacted me and said he want to increase space. I said that's not a good option because you can harm your Linux installation and told him that I will check on that
I haven't done it myself because I have plenty of space in my installation
So the question is :
Is it possible to extend the root and home partition safely?
If yes is there a GUI method to do that because he lives far and I can't physically help him if there is only a CLI method then I want to travel that far to help him
. If the GUI method he can do stuff himself and I can give him instructions over the phone
