RE: so i finally got around to it...
why did it take so long to uninstall windows? you do mean a regular install don't you, like off a windows disk?
Cause i wiped and partitoned my drive in about 40mins (a proper wipe by the way). or did you just remove a windows partiton?

on my linux system, i have 10 partitions
my windows was in dev/sda1
the drives i wanted to embiggen were in /dev/sda9, /dev/sda10, and /dev/sda11
so, i had to delete a 100 gb partition, then move it through 8 other partitions just to be able to embiggen the ones that i wanted to.
