[CentOS] Resizing a fat filesystem on a USB partition

Hi All, I feel this is the most simple question but I am currently going around and round in circles and searches keep bringing me up Windows tools!! :-( I have a 512MB USB drive that has a 12MB FAT16 partition on it. How can I resize this 12MB partition to grow and fill the whole 512MB driv

Re: [CentOS] Resizing a fat filesystem on a USB partition

AFAIK, there is no way to "resize" any FAT partition. You have to delete both partitions and then create a new one. I thought the CD installer came with a utility to resize FAT partitions (albeit in MS DOS)? And this isn't possible in CentOS it self? :-/ Ho hum, thank you very much for t

Re: [CentOS] Resizing a fat filesystem on a USB partition

Look for gnu parted. There are a couple of live cds out there with it, like "Parted Magic" and others. Parted can resize fat and ntfs file systems among others. Unfortunately `parted` doesn't work with this setup where the partition size is different to the filesystem size and throws up lot

[CentOS] Force run of quotacheck at boot

Hi All, I think I have managed to corrupt my quota files so I need to run `quotacheck` but that needs the partition to have quotas off or be unmounted which isn't ideal for a production system :-p I was trying to find a way to force the system to do a full `quotacheck -cvuga` on a reboot but

Re: [CentOS] Force run of quotacheck at boot

I was trying to find a way to force the system to do a full `quotacheck -cvuga` on a reboot but on looking in rc.sysinit it seems it will only force a quotacheck on boot when fsck finds problems with the disk. Which CentOS? Sorry, CentOS 4.x In /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit of CentOS 5 it seems to
