It seems that the safest thing to do is to uninstall the older version of Mathematica. If I do this, I will recover 3 GB. That helps, but unfortunately, that is not much, and I would like to preserve the old version... Probably the best thing to do would be to set a larger partition for root when I installed opensuse. Is there a safe and easy way to enlarge the root partition?
You can only resize a partition if you have spare space on the drive, or if you can shrink some other partition. Gpartd can do this.
But in your case you may find it simpler to move /usr to its own partition.
It seems to me that there was some noise on this list with systemD making this more complicated than it was in the past (it was never drop dead easy, unless, as mentioned you are sitting on a bunch of unallocated space).
there is aways LVM, and changing partitioning is not necessary. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
