When I was doing my original install, it was on a p100 w/ 32 megs of ram, so I gave myself a 1 gig swap partition to help alleviate some of the server load. Now, I have moved this install to a AMD K6/2 500MHz with 512 megs of RAM, so I really don't need a 1 gig swap partition on only a 3 gig hard drive. What is the best way to repartition this disk without having to reinstall? Here is my current disk structure: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad0s1a 253678 54430 178954 23% / Devfs 1 1 0 100% /dev /dev/ad0s1e 253678 26 233358 0% /tmp /dev/ad0s1f 1284302 688048 493510 58% /usr /dev/ad0s1d 253678 31542 201842 14% /var Thanks in advance
