thanks for your replys.
everything but boot is ext3 and its a RAID5.
For now I think maybe its better to make some new partitions and copy the
stuff to them by using a live cd and then adjust fstab and/or make symlinks.
the problem is the maschine is a server and I dont want it to be down for a
long time, its only used for cups at the moment, but I think its more secure
to quit the idea of resizing and do it the mount and symlink way. another
benefit of this way is I can prepare everything so I only need to reboot
with a live cd to copy the files and thats it.

thanks again for your solutions
