resize an ext3 partition with coexisting ntfs partition
hi there,
i am a newbie to linux and i have just installed knoppix 3.3/debian on my laptop with a new compilied 2.6 kernel:
my question is concerning the partitions:
Gerät Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 1921 15430401 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2 1922 2432 4104607+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5 1922 2383 3710983+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda6 2384 2432 393561 82 Linux Swap
this is my partition table; i like to resize (grow) the linux partitions and make the ntfs partition with win xp on it smaller.
do you have a hint for me to perform these changes without loosing data ? i thought of doing it under win with partition magic.
what about changes with the lilo i am using ? i like to mention that i do not have a floppy in my laptop, so booting is only possible with a cd rom.
hope for answers, thank you in advance..
