Re: [Plug] resizing an extended partition





I never heard of "ext2resize". Tell me/us more. TX

Subject:  [Plug] resizing an extended partition





I thought I'd at least ask before completely reformatting. Is there any
way to resize an entire extended partition. I know ext2resize can resize
ext2 partitions.
   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hdb1   *         1       260   2088418+   6  FAT16
/dev/hdb3           521       784   2120580    5  Extended
/dev/hdb5           521       773   2032191   83  Linux
/dev/hdb6           774       784     88326   82  Linux swap
I want to have the extended partition go from 261 to 784, and then move
and resize the ext2 partition (hdb5) to 261 to 773.
I doubt this can be done, but if you know, that's great.
