I can see I am going to have to play catch up after I get back from an excursion

When you get to use a couple of Linuxes (Distros) you will likely make the acquaintance of a very useful tool called the GNOME Partition Editor aka GParted. We use it to manipulate the size of different partitions, create, delete, recover &c. All this must be done from a Distro other than the one you are working on, or from a Live CD/DVD/USB containing GParted Live. There is also usually a GParted on your live install medium.
Here's a GParted shot from my Toshiba Satellite laptop, which I am currently reorganising.
Where the forward slash near my cursor under Mount Point is, indicates the root partition I am working from, namely, Debian 9.1 'Stretch' with the Cinnamon DE (Desktop Environment). My other computer usually has 40 - 45 Linux on it, it has a 2TB HDD, this one is 1TB.
Back before long.

@wizardfromoz, what do you mean "65 -70" distros?
