Hi! I like to increase swap partition but I am scary to screw up my system. FreeBSD is installed on iMac (Mountain Lion). gpart show => 34 1953525101 ada0 GPT (932G) 34 6 - free - (3.0K) 40 409600 1 efi (200M) 409640 1216587112 2 apple-hfs (580G) 1216996752 1269536 3 apple-boot (620M) 1218266288 1024 4 freebsd-boot (512K) 1218267312 727710720 5 freebsd-ufs (347G) 1945978032 7547102 6 freebsd-swap (3.6G) 1953525134 1 - free - (512B) What I planning to do: Boot to OS X and than decrease apple-hfs partition for 64 GB. Than boot to FreeBSD (single user) and: swapoff -a gpart resize -i6 ada0 swapon -a Do I need to use gpart resize -i6 -s 64G ada0 or gpart will find empty space and use it, please? Should I format on OS X empty space to FAT? And I am using rEFiT for boot manager. Thank you. SK
