Re: Problem: How to resize FreeBSD "partitions" on a live system?

Hey again!

Thanks for all the insight and stuff.

I wrote down the "auto defaults" layout on a *** of paper and
re-entered them in the installer, but changed /var to 10000M. Seems to
work alright. Feels good too.

What worries me now is that if I run my backup.sh, which grabs the
database and WWW data files, compress them and put them in an
FTP-accessable location, I need twice as much (or so) storage space
just for keeping the backup file!

Maybe I should buy one of those tape backup devices... After all, now I
have the space in the server's new midtower chassis (as opposed to the
old 1U rackserver one). I'd rather avoid it, though.
