This is to announce the first availability of a patch for
2.0.36 to allow "safely" growing of an ext2 filesystem
WHILE IT IS MOUNTED. The growth of the filesystem can
happen while the FS is in use, with open files, and no
impact to programs reading or writing to the filesystem.
I only quote "safely" because the patch is new - there is
no danger that I found in my limited testing, but since
you are playing with your disk always have a backup!
...note the date and kernel version number...
