Hi, Adrian,

 No, fips won't do that... First of all, fips is designed for resizing Dos partitions, and secondly, I don't know of any tool which can resize Linux partitions (not even Partition Magic can do that). The way to do it is rebuild everything from scratch...

Hello, all!

i have a quick question about fips.  I was hoping to be able to reduce my
swap partition size as i don't think i really need 72Mb (2 x RAM) and need
more space on my linux native partition.  Will fips do this?  I have my
swap and linux partitions next to each other (from fdisk info).  should I
defrag my linux native partition?  what about the swap partition?

any info would be great.

thanks,

adrian b.
