Hi all,
I've a few questions on resizing fs/partitions, and I can't find answers in any docs
or LDP.
Please help!
Does the resize2fs tool work for ext3 filesystems as well?
If not, what do I use?
Do I lose all the data in the partition by shrinking or growing it w/ fdisk?
If so, how do I relabel the mount point after backing up?
What is a reiserfs?
Does anyone have better recommended sizes for partitions for the following:
~p/vol~ ~mount point~ ~full~ ~current size (use)~ ~new size/full~
hda15 / 8.9% 5GB 1GB / 44.5%
hda1 /boot 36.2% 48MB 48MB / 36.2%
hda6 /home 7.5% 2GB (40 users max) 6GB / 2.5%
hda13 /tmp 7.9% 1200MB 1200MB / 7.9%
hda9 /usr 62.5% 5GB 9GB / 34.7%
hda12 /usr/tmp 7.2% 400MB 400MB / 7.2%
hda8 /var 6.6% 5GB 1GB / 33.0%
hda10 /var/ftp 5.8% 5GB (100MB/user) 5GB / 5.8%
hda14 /var/log 8.4% 1GB 1GB / 8.4%
hda5 /var/spool 9.4% 1GB 1GB / 9.4%
hda7 /var/spool/mail 5.7% 5GB (100MB/user) 5GB / 5.7%
hda11 /var/tmp 7.2% 400MB 400MB / 7.2%
hda2* /var/www 5.3% 20GB (500MB/user) 20GB / 5.3%
hda16 swap --- 2GB (1GB RAM) 2GB / ---
*hda2 is physically after hda4 on the disk; hda1 is first; hd5-16 are in order within
hda4 on the
disk.
I was considering making / (8.9% full) and /var (6.6% full) a bit smaller, like 1GB
each, then
putting the excess into /usr (62.5% full) and /home (7.5% full with 1 user -- me).
It's a 60GB
drive, so you'd figure it would fit everything (except laptop) easily....
I'm getting really good at the installation part, but I'd rather try something
different. BTW,
why is this info not in HOWTOs or man pages?
Does anyone know of other good resources, aside from this list?
Thanks!!!
Michael
