It depends how you have installed Linux. I don;'t know whether this
will work now, but i'm posting herem let;s see other opinions:
Just tar and gzip with necesary parameters to retain permissions, all
the individual partitions like /, /boot, /usr, /home. Then create the
new partition using Druid and untar the stuf there. Will this work. I
am assuming that you have given just one partition to Linux native
where all the stuff is installed. If you already have different
partitions for the same, resizing is much easier. Read the archives(I
remeber Ravikant Rao detailing this stuff some time back)
