Hello,

Im using mandrake 8.2 and currently i have one ide drive that the /usr
partition is almost full. I cant install any more packages on this box
untill i get the /usr partition moved to a bigger drive. Can anyone point
me at a howto to move the /usr partition over??
In Freebsd its just a matter of using fdisk to partition & format the drive
and make entries into /etc/fstab  and mount the drive by doing
mount -t ufs /dev/xxx  /usr

However im new to mandrake ..and im not sure of how to do this without
messing the current /usr partition.
Once the drive is formated with linux file system (journalized FS)
can i just copy the data  on my current /usr partition to the new drive
then edit /etc/fstab ??

any and all help is greatly appreciated..

Thank you
Brent Bailey CCNA
