I have some unpopulated partitions. The system originally was woody, using a mixture 
of testing installer and woody CDs. Since then I moved my system to sid. Due to 
restrictions in the woody installer, not all 160 gb were recognized. I want to fix 
this, cfdisk and relatives from sid have no problems seeing the whole disk.
So, at this point, all is in /dev/hdb1.
What is the best way to move /home; /usr; to some of these partitions, and have then 
recognized at booting time?
I want to create a swap partition, because I didn't create one, due to the fact that I 
was playing with the netinstaller for testing before using the woody installer, and it 
seems to me now that it didn't ask me then if I wanted one. And having 512 mb of RAM 
didn't make me too worried about it.  However, the time has come for one. What is the 
best procedure to get it going?
I know (??) that I have to make changes in /etc/fstab, some cp, etc, but would prefer 
to hear some opinions before going ahead, would not want to mess up a new machine.
