Hi all, |
2 |
|

I am new to gentoo and so far I really like it. But now, I am running |
4 |
out of disk space on my root partition (10 GB), although I have a |
5 |
rather small system with fluxbox (no KDE, GNOME,...). Thought gentoo |
6 |
would not waste my resources that much. Now I am thinking about how to |
7 |
resize my ext3 partitions. Bellow is the output of fdisk: |
8 |
|
9 |
fdisk -l |
10 |
|
11 |
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes |
12 |
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders |
13 |
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes |
14 |
Disk identifier: 0xbbc58b91 |

/dev/sda1 1 893 7168000 1c Hidden W95 FAT32 (LBA) |
18 |
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. |

24 |

25 |
/dev/sda9 15078 19458 35182990 83 Linux |
26 |
|
27 |
sda8 is my root partition and sda9 is my home partition where there is |
28 |
plenty of space. Is there any safe way to resize with Linux tools? The |
29 |
descriptions found on google did not help me a lot... |
