Need to resize a cloned hard drive

[Bmarsh]

I haven’t used kparted but usually use gparted and graphically expand the partition.  BTW, good SSD. partitioning says to leave 10% of the drive unallocated but no more than 10GB.

Maybe a screen shot would help.

Sorry to be replying to my own message but I forgot to add that when I  
click on OK a popup opens that wants to know if I really want to resize  
the partition from 111.79 to 111.79.
