Has anyone tried to use the Partition manager to repartition - that is to resize a partition without losing data?

I understand I'd need to do it from the install disk so that the partitions on the hard drive aren't mounted, or something similar.

All I want to do is trim my /home partition a little and give some to the / partition. I'm a little too close to full for my liking. I want to add another 5 GB.

I used to do this in other OSes with Partition Manager but don't trust in with ext3 partitions. -- bob@rsmits.ca -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
