The short answer: Yes, it's possible.
The slightly longer answer:
You need to look into "LVM" (or Logical Volume Manager) to do this. The
following links should help you along with that.
Part 1 of Logical Volume Management by IBM. This is part 1 of a 2 part
set. (note: there are many white papers on this web site by IBM. Well
worth looking at!)
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lvm/?dwzone=linux
Also take a look at:
http://www.sistina.com (they support the LVM code & utilities.
Hope that helps!
