You could try resize2fs (read the manpage, you'll need a bootdisk with a copy of it) but it doesn't automate resizing the partiton, sou you''ll have to do that with fdisk. If you're not using ext2 or perhaps ext3, tough luck. I suguest you backup your system, repartition and restore. _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
