That would tell you your filesystems/partitions. If you have a tape or some other reasonably high capacity backup, you could put one file system per tape if needed to get a place for them. Then build whatever you need and remake file systems and then restore stuff from tape. If you create a directory and cd to it before a 'restore x' it will put everything in that directory which can be on the same filesystem as another directory you restored something else in which is sort of a merge while retaining the directory structure. Then, from there you can move (mv) things around as you please as you think of a new directory picture. ////jerry > ---------------------------------------------- > ad1s3 and ad1s1 are packed full (both like 98%) > ad1s2 is empty and can be deleted ..... > > My aim is to join ad1s2 and ad1s3, and I dont have any 30G by hand to move > all data over and > do complete "clean up". > Is it possible or should I rather start searching for another disk? > > Thank you > Martin > > _______________________________________________ > 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" >
