If you have a Linux desktop, try something like gparted. I have used this since I started with Fedora-arm 18. It makes it easy to resize all your partitions. Since I use Cubieboards, I can build a small mSD card with only the uboot on it and put all the partitions on a sata drive. I believe that other Allwinner uboots (for boards with sata) work this way. So I can drop the image on a sata drive, enlarge and move all the partitions and I am ready to go.
