Re: Resizing Partitions

[Reuben Sailor <rogue@ngxweb.com>]

Actually, I am very interested in knowing how to non destructively resize 
my partitions without reinstalling OBSD too.  I have searched and come up 
empty too.  Is there a BSD utility that will allow me to accomplish this?

When I first did the install, I made a newbie mistake and set my swap 
partition about 3.5 times too big (200MB) on my OBSD 2.8 firewall/NAT box 
(486-100mhz 32 MB RAM).

I would like to set my swap to 64MB (can I make it smaller....I am just 
using it as a firewall/nat and possibly an ntp server--if i can get the ntp 
to work properly) and reclaim that extra space.

Also, how much space do I need to accommodate the full source code on my 
harddrive?  I have a small harddrive (about 500 MB)

Thanks!
