Hello guys,
I'm not quite an expert at Gentoo but have just been asked recently by

It should be mentioned that if you use this method then, after running
parted to resize the partition(s), you will also need to resize the
filesystem(s) on the partition(s).
If I remember correctly, you're right and the resize of he filesystem required.
Of course if you shrink the partition,

Hello,
I am converting an Ubuntu 9.10 to NFS boot by coping files to the NFS
root.
My question is:
Would it be better to create a local hard drive swap and file system for
certain root dir?
Should Tmp be local rather than on the NFS root?
Any suggestions on what to keep local would help.

I might chime in, that I once deleted an important 90 GB partition by
mistake, when a Ubuntu install had shuffled drive assignments. Ubuntu had
assigned the formerly /dev/hda1 to /dev/sda1, and former /dev/sda1 to
/dev/sda2.
Ubuntu used UUIDs. That is an approach that works, once I learned how

Have writable files on local disk and mount them a la mount --bind
