I am currently using Ubuntu 15.04 in my Lenovo ideapad Z510 which was preinstalled with Windows 8.1. Once I shifted to linux, I decided to dual-boot it with windows 8.1 temporarily. So later when I had no use of windows, I used GParted
to format the windows partition.
Windows was initially installed in /dev/sda4
partition. As you can see it has 1.14GiB of used space even after the format. This is also supported by the fact that the windows boot option in grub takes me to windows recovery.
I want to know, is there is a way to completely get rid of this? So that I can use all of the 61.43GiB.
Also, in the above picture /dev/sda
is shown to be 931.51GiB (top right corner). But actually my disk capacity is 1TB. What happened to the remaining storage? Is it the BIOS? If not, is there any way I can access it?
