Is it possible to resize the / partition using Parted? I would like to repartition the hdd on my laptop running the latest FC1. It currently has the following partitions:
1 /boot 2 / 3 swap
These partitions take all the space on the hdd with / being the largest one. I would like to resize the / partition so that I can add a new partitionfor testing purposes. I tried using Parted to do this but it gave me a warning that said it couldn't cleanly unmount the partition and that I should e2fsck. I stopped at this point, as I was afraid of losing data. Was this warning a problem? Can I still resize this partition even though it is mounted? If not, is there another way to resize the partition without having to use a live CD of some kind?
Thanks, PRINCE
There is a program called sfdisk written by my old colleague Andries Brouwer what can do it, but it is risky businness, you can easily loose partition data.
