Increase size of Windows Bootcamp Partition

[ender land]

I should have thought of this prior to having used bootcamp/win7 for a few months, but I am rapidly running out of space on my partition (something like 32gb).

What are some recommended ways to increase the size of the partition? Is it easy to do through bootcamp - understandably the partition will be wiped initially and I'll have to go through the win7 install process again - but is this a painless process?

Or is there some miracle where you can add space to an existing bootcamp partition? One can always hope 😀

Hey-o, doh.

Note the warnings in the guide. Many of the approaches have led to data loss. Backup early and often.
