Question How do I create an FDisk?

I want to format the partition on my drive that has the OS pre-installed on as it will give me an extra 20GB of disk space that I can use for back ups but I don't know how to create one so if someone can explain I will be very happy.

Use gparted to add the partition to the other partition. Or set up a new partition.

You do have copies of the OS disk in case you need to reformat as you will be loosing your reinstall files.
