I'm on debian etch (4.0) and I have no physical access to the server, I'm using ext2/3 (not lvm), do you have any suggestion? How did you do that?
hi,
i've made it with a installscript of my hoster. ask your hoster about installscripts. these installscripts should partition your harddrives with other sizes.

Well, the thing is I don't want to lose data, the server has a lot of important data.
I know a way to resize/create partitions, but only if I had physical/offline access to the server...
Does anyone know a way?
I was thinking about shrinking /home and then either:
- enlarge / partition with the free unpartitioned space
- create /var partition with the free unpartitioned space
What do you suggest?
