Hi all,

Boot partition created too small. This spells trouble, right?

Well if you have enough room for your kernel and initrd now it should be fine.


Well, I've
inherited a system that has only only /boot, /, /swap, and a data partition.
The result, ran out of space on the root partition.

Okay well you can do several things. 2.4 kernels come with support for use of mount (mount --bind)


for instance to move /home to /data you would do the following

mkdir /data/home
cp -a /home /data/home
mount --bind /data/home /home

and of course you can add this mount to your fstab.

This is the easiest way without having to resize your partitions.
