How do I resize my reiser partition?
I am experimenting with resierfs and have successfully created a resier
partition onto which I copies my Debian root filesystem. Everything works
really well, except that now I want to delete my old ext2 partition and
extend the new reiser partition to use up the freespace.
I have spent ages trying to find out exactly what to do. I understand I
can grow the reiser partition by adding a mount command to my /etc/fstab.
The problem I have is what to put as the 'blocks' entry.
Currently I have:
hda2 Primary Win95 FAT32 6325.25
hda4 Boot Primary Linux 3569.78
hda5 Logical Linux ext2 10594.17
I want to remove /dev/hda5 and grow /dev/hda4 (reiserfs) to fill the
space.
df gives me:
/dev/hda4 3485968 2311752 1174216 67% /
/dev/hda5 10187124 2466712 7410040 25% /mnt
Can anyone help? Hold my hand a little?!
Many thanks.
