I am using Fedora Core 3 and Grub, and need to resize my /boot partition.
1) Can it be done "on-the-fly", i.e., without destroying the fs? What tool
can be used for that (parted complains about incompatible feature enabled)?
2) If it cannot be done on the fly, I am assuming I will need to reinstall
the bootstrap. Do I use grub-install for that? With what options?
My current grub.conf looks like this:
= top ========================================================
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb
quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img
= eof ========================================================
Thanks in advance.
