 reallocating space to partitions We have a system that was set up back in 98. The system had a 15G drive and has worked as a intranet server for us. Now we have added more internal apps to the server and we realized that the root partition was growing thin. Like Partition Magic in Windows is there any tool that can be used to repartition or reallocate space to the partitions? If any one has a link to a HOW-TO that would be great. Thanks. --Turi      |

I've done it before. .... really? http://www.powerquest.com/partitionmagic/features.html [...] * Supports FAT, FAT32, NTFS, Ext2, and Ext3 file systems. [...] .... i use XFS and reiserfs partitions exclusively, as do many people. ext2/3 != other Linux partitions  granted, you CAN create an ext2/3 partition with PM, then convert it when installing/etc. a 2-tool, 2-step process which should ONLY be ONE. and *WHY* should i purchase a product that DOESNT work on the filesystems that i use when i can go here for a download? http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/parted.html -- << http://michaeljtobler.homelinux.com/ >> U: There's a U -- a Unicorn!
