Hi,
   Can I merge an existing GNU/Linux partition with 3.5 gb of free space on 
another drive? Both of the drives have important data, so, I would not like 
to take risks.
The details of the drives are as follows:-

Drive 1) mount point          /
         fs                   Ext3
         where?               /dev/hda2
         free/total space     1.6 gb/7.5 gb
         fstab line           LABEL=/  /  ext3  defaults  1 1
         OS                   RHL 7.2
         size per sector      4 kb

Drive 2) mount point          /mnt/hdb1
         fs                   fat32
         where?               /dev/hdb1
         free/total space     4.5 gb/9.3 gb
         fstab line           /dev/hdb1  /mnt/hdb1  vfat  noauto,rw,user  0 0
         OS                   Win98
         size per sector      8 kb

I will partition the second disk as soon as I get a solution. Because the per 
sector sizes are different, it might not merge.
