No. But if I'm correct, only the Disk Utility in OSX 10.5 and newer supports true volume resize, without erasing the contents. (Fix me?) 10.5.8 was the last version for PowerPC. But sadly it might not work on really old PowerBooks. :/ So if you can do this or not might depend on your machine's type, sadly. Charlie
