It depends on your partition layout.

Consider simply not using the 200 Mb partition. If there's anything 
valuable there, copy it to a new directory beside the mount-point, 
unmount the partition (and fix fstab) and rename.

Or use a symlink to make the filesystem look right having copied stuff 
to where you have space

It's hard to be clear with so little info.
