Currently I have bazzite on an old sata ssd (1tb) and my old win 11 install on my nvme drive (512gb).
I want to swap the drives to have bazzite on my nvme and windows on my sata ssd.
How do I shrink the system partition so I can clone the ssd to the nvme drive?

sudo btrfs filesystem resize -XXG / to reduce the partition size by xx GB. But this just sets the space as unallocated on the partition.How do I seperate the unallocated space from the partition? Just using GParted (as mr. gpt suggests) doesn't work
