Ext2/Ext3 does not include online resizing, though there are experimental patches on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=303834&group_id=3834&func=browse Several of the other journaling filesystems support online expansion, including Reiserfs and XFS. You ought to be able to resize Ext3 from the rescue disks. Regards, Bill Rugolsky
