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?
