    Hi Gene,

    This is more a question for debian-user than debian-arm in the absence of
    more context.

    On a system running Debian 12.1 and GNOME - gparted brings up an authorisation box for sudo - but runs fine under Wayland here.

    gparted is essentially a visual interface round parted. Use parted.

    On an Intel-compatible architecture, use the live CD version of gparted
    (or maybe clonezilla??)
