I had a Linux partition that I was hardly ever using. Rather than just let it sit around and waste five gigs of disk space, I deleted it using the Linux install CD. I want to now extend a partition to fill the empty space. The partition that I want to expand is adjacent to the empty space, so that shouldn't be a problem, right? I don't mind erasing the partition I want to expand, either. However, OS X doesn't want to let me do this without erasing everything on the whole drive.

How can I do this? The linux partitioning utility seems to have no problem creating and deleting partitions without erasing the rest of the drive, but it cannot create HFS+ partitions.

Is there any program that will let me do this? Or am I stuck with a reformat?

I just tried doing that in Panther but it doesn't allow me to repartition on the fly. It require me to delete the drive first before repartition.

The GUI is there for repartition so I guess they'll add the feature in final or something.

I managed to do it through pdisk off of the install CD.

It would definitely be nice to have a GUI for doing this, though.
