I agree. Partition Magic is a great tool. I just used it to fix the LILO LI problem I created after I had repartitioned a dual-boot drive to make more room for Windows. That sure taught me a thing or two! __________________________________________________ Pat Gorden-Ozgul BNL-ISD Systems gorden@bnl.gov 631-344-5159 -----Original Message----- From: Chris Reeves [mailto:chris.reeves@iname.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2001 4:38 PM To: O'Bieito; SuSE Mailing List Subject: Re: [SLE] SETI O'Bieito wrote:
And now I remember another question... anyone has resized their partitions sometime ? I find now 250 MB is not going to be enough for /home soon, and would like a hint, or a nice link to a description of the process. I have plenty of space both in / and /usr.
I know what you mean, I just increased my /home from 1GB to 3GB, and it's currently sitting at 2GB used... Your best option here for rearranging partitions is to invest in a copy of the latest Partition Magic (a commercial, DOS based program). It is absolutely fantastic and the latest version can handle ext2. If you want a rather ugly solution, you can create a new /home directory in / and copy the contents over (you'll have to do a number of renaming operations to do this). Then you'll have to find something useful to do with that now empty partition.
