A 20 GB drive, on setup I over-estimated
space to some partitions (eg. /var), while
under-estimating space to other (/usr) partitions.
df -h gives:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda6 3.8G 301M 3.3G 9% /
/dev/hda1 99M 13M 81M 14% /boot
none 252M 0 252M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/hda5 4.9G 943M 3.7G 21% /home
/dev/hda3 4.9G 3.8G 790M 84% /usr
/dev/hda2 4.9G 267M 4.3G 6% /var
Is there a way to repartition, non-destructively, to
give more space to /usr and less to /var? I have
googled but not found anything precise.
Any suggestions appreciated,
gparted will do it, but it's not for the faint of heart. Several
commercial products work, too (Partition Magic, Partition Commander).
