Split your disk into multiple partitions, you will be able to newfs again a partition after moving stuff in other partitions, and moving back to the newly newfs'd partition. You will be able to resize partitions with the same action: part1 part2 other parts |-------------|-------------|---------------- move every file from part1 to other parts move every file from part2 to other parts |-------------------|-------|----------------- edit disklabel to change size (be careful) and newfs new part1 and new part2 move stuff back. -- ----- ----- Philippe Charnier charnier@lirmm.fr LIRMM, 161 rue Ada, 34392 Montpellier cedex 5 -- France ------------------------------------------------------------------------
