[ext2resize] ext2online

[Jan H. <cyb...@gm...>]

Hi,

I have the following hd configuration:

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1             888M  808M   34M  96% /
/dev/hda2             251M   31k  237M   1% /tmp
/dev/hda4             2.7G  1.4G  1.2G  52% /var

I would like to increase the hd space on hda1 by eating some free space of
hda4. I want to use
ext2online for this purpose. (cause hda1 must stay mounted).
However it don't seem to work. I thought I had to shrink hda4 first and then
grow hda1 with this new free space. But I don't seem to be able/allowed to
shrink hda4. How can I solve this?
By the way I didn't apply any kernel patches cause I didn't see any
reference in the docs/faqs (I just installed some redhat rpms). I asume you
don't need any unless you have an older version 2.2 or something? (I use >
2.4)?

Thanks!
