Please set your mailer wrap to 72 characters.

You can't resize a partition with cfdisk or fdisk.  There are resizing
utilities, however I strongly recommend:

  - Backup partition(s)
  - Verify backup(s)
  - Delete old partition(s)
  - Create new partition(s)
  - Create filesystem(s)
  - Restore from backup.

I suggest tar for creating backups, to tape, networked storage, or CDR.
