My usr partition is almost full, at about 96%, and the root partition is practically empty at about 34%. Can I safely use the partition editor to allocate some more space to the usr partition from the root partition, or will this corrupt the system? I can/should back up the system first, so... Any suggestions? TIA gb Greg Bernard Data Broadcasting Corp. gbernard@dbc.com 1900 S. Norfolk St. All opionions, if I had any, are my own. San Mateo, CA 94404
