Hey Steve! Thanks a lot for your response. :-)
I had already made the changes before reading your mail. Couldn't resist experimenting.. ;-) Well, here's what I did. $cd /data2 $mkdir usr-bkup $cd usr-bkup $cp -ax /usr . Used YaST to format /dis2 (/dev/sda3). It only contained a Debian installation. No important data. $mv /usr /usr-old $mkdir /usr $mount /dev/sda3 /usr Checked that all seemed good. Edited /etc/fstab as required. Held my breath and rebooted. Boink!!!!!!! Grub failed... And so forgetful I am, forgot that my bootloader was on /dev/sda3 which I had just formatted!!! Well, used SuSE 9.2 CD to reinstall GRUB. Now everything was fine. $rm /data2/usr-bkup -r $rm /usr-old -r Everything looks healthy now. :-) > (boy are you out of space !! you ought to take backups/get a new disk) :-D I guess I need another disk... That will allow me to experiment a bit as well. I want to try out LVM as well... Only after I get a new disk to play with.
