Using Noobs on 8 GB SD card not using all space

Question

I have been using Noobs to install Raspbian on a Raspberry B+. I can see that it doesn't use the whole 8 GB of my card.

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ df -H
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs          3.0G  2.7G  139M  96% /
/dev/root       3.0G  2.7G  139M  96% /
devtmpfs        192M     0  192M   0% /dev
tmpfs            40M  250k   39M   1% /run
tmpfs           5.3M     0  5.3M   0% /run/lock
tmpfs            79M     0   79M   0% /run/shm
/dev/mmcblk0p5   62M   11M   52M  17% /boot

And as you can see I still have space left:

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo parted
GNU Parted 2.3
Using /dev/mmcblk0

 3      3975MB  4009MB  33.6MB  primary   ext4

What can I do in order to expand the space and use all my sd card without reinstalling everything?

Thanks for the help.

Just use the raspi-config command and select the first option. You have to run it as the root user, so use:

sudo raspi-config
