How to have Ubuntu partition eat Windows partition?
I am getting used to Ubuntu 18.04, and when I first installed Ubuntu I set it so that I could still run windows 10. Now I want to switch to just be Ubuntu. I would like my Ubuntu partition to eat my existing windows partition so that afterward my ubuntu partition is the size of both my existing windows partition & existing ubuntu partition.
While I would love to keep the existing file structure of Ubuntu, I do have a back up of the entire file system.
boot dual-boot partitioning 18.04 windows-10
