If I remember correctly, you're right and the resize of he filesystem required. |
| 6 |
Of course if you shrink the partition, first you need to resize the |
| 7 |
file system before the |
| 8 |
resizing of the partition and if you grow the partition, first you |
| 9 |
need to resize the partition |
| 10 |
before the resizing the file system. (Maybe, you should turn off the |
| 11 |
journalling when you |
| 12 |
modify an ext3 file system, but i am not sure in it) |

I strongly recommend the gparted, I have resized and moved partitions |
| 17 |
(ext2, ext3 and ntfs) with it, |
| 18 |
and i never had problem with it. It hase a nice GUI and it does every |
| 19 |
necessary steps automatically. :-) |
