     Hey There Jeff

    Your theory is correct, however, best post this on -questions, you will get
    more experience over there. Remeber to take backups :) Have you tried man
    growfs yet ?

    Welcome to the community :)

    Okay, I've got FreeBSD 4.8-Stable running, and I've run out of room on /
     
    I've looked around, and I think (in theory) that I can use growfs to
    increase the size of / since the contiguous slice is /tmp, from which I
    can sacrifice some space.
     
    Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on

    /dev/ad0s1f 257998 1254 236106 1% /tmp
    /dev/ad0s1g 18359694 5072672 11818248 30% /usr
    /dev/ad0s1e 257998 8384 228976 4% /var
    procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc
     
    Problem is, I'm not quite sure how to do it, and scared of messing up
    my system in the process. Has anyone attempted something similar?
     
    TIA
