[please cc: me in replies as I'm not subscribed to this list. Thank you.] Hello,
My old 20G drive in my 5.1-RELEASE box started to die last week, so I got a new drive (a 40G Seagate) and used Norton Ghost to copy over everything from the old drive to the new drive. At the moment, FreeBSD still thinks I've only got a 20G drive and I have 20 Gigs of unused space. I was thinking of using growfs in order to grow my /usr partition to fill the rest of the drive. I've read the man pages for growfs, bsdlabel and fdisk but I'm a bit confused about how I should go about using these tools to do what I want as I've never really used them before except on a new installation. So here are my questions: how safe is it to use growfs for this purpose? Can anyone provide or does anyone know of a good step-by-step tutorial for this sort of thing? I searched around on the web but couldn't find anything useful. TIA, Scott _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
