Here is what my hdc looks like. hdc1 /boot hdc2 / hdc3 swap hdc5 <extended partition> hdc6 /home
My goal is to split up / into a number of smaller partitions. I would like to backup hdc2, delete hdc2 and hdc3, then resize hdc5 (extending the start sector downward), then add back in new partitions as needed. I need to get some of the new partitions into the extended partition as there can be only four primary partitions. I would like to leave /home alone (no pun intended) as it is large and unwieldy. My main question is can I enlarge an extended partition without disturbing a logical partition(s) within? How (un)safe would that be? TIA, -Tracy -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
