Resizing on the fly will (presumably) leave the bootstrap intact; if I copy everything out, blow away the partition, and recreate it to my liking, just copying the files back into it would not make the new partition bootable. In LILO days you would just rerun lilo. Anyone knows what needs to be done if using Grub? Thanks! --Marcin
