If you mean growing the FreeBSD slice (which is BSD language for a DOS partition) then I don't think you can. However, if it is unallocated space in the slice take a look at the growfs man page. You'll probably need to use bsdlabel/disklabel to edit your slice partition table. Searching for bsdlabel and growfs will probably help too. -lewiz. --=20 I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. --Bob Dylan, 1964. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -| msn:purple@lewiz.net | jabber:lewiz@jabber.org | url:www.lewiz.org |- --C7zPtVaVf+AK4Oqc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFAXY0/Itq0KFQv7T8RAjAfAKCZOKCtRFjGzYxB4ojN6BJ3RbfaQACg+8dj 8h2mTVHN++aIjnu72tk6jRs= =MR5o -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --C7zPtVaVf+AK4Oqc--
