How can I do this? > Well, you will have to re-fdisk the drive. I don't really know if you can do all of it in place or not. You will be best off making dump(8) backups of a, d and e and then running fdisk to create your two slices and then bsdlabel to create the partitions within the slices. Is there a reason you want another slice - like you plan to dual boot the machine or something? If not, just use that partition however you want and don't bother with the slice. ////jerry > > > -- > Cihan K?me?o?lu > Enderunix Edu ST > www.enderunix.org > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
