I have a netbook that was given to me. It does not have an CDROM drive.
The HD is partitioned into 2 drives. The first is about 4 gigs while the other is about 8gigs.

How can I (if possible) to combine both partitions into one. I am looking for free software to do this.
Thanks!

You basically have to download GParted Live CD, copy it to a thumbdrive, and find a way to boot from your thumbdrive plugged into your netbook's USB port.

Another, more straightforward alternative is to burn GParted onto a CD (use another computer of course), and hook up an external CD-drive to your netbook. Which netbook are you using btw?
