readying files for repartition


Is there a way I can copy files to the top of a partition and the bottom of a partition? Say I have something like this

TOP
AAAA
slack space
BBBB
slack space
CCCC
slack space
DDDD
slack space
EEEE
BOTTOM

I want to get it to

TOP
BBBB
CCCC
DDDD
EEEE
slack space
AAAA
BOTTOM

without having to do a dump and restore?

So I want to consolidate my slack space and move file AAAA to the end of the partition.
