Are you saying this is not the case? Nope, I was merely saying that resizing is *not* a necessity, except you want to use the (larger) space of the partition. A filesystem doesn't really care for the size of the partition. That's what I wanted to express... just that it doesn't happen automatically, and on the other hand is not necessary in order to use the old data. -hwh -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
