Hello,
    I've got a 5.3-RELEASE box which has a /usr partition /dev/ad0s1e that
is to small by approximately 700 mb. I've got the space on /var /dev/ad0s1d
to do a resize, but i am unsure as to the procedure. I tried this once a
while back on a test box and lost everything. If anyone has done this or has
a procedure i'd be interested.
Thanks.
Dave.
