Hi there!

Silly me, I installed a linux system via the internet and realize I need 
another partition right now.

Currently there is a swap, a small 16Meg (/boot - ext2) and a 3rd partition (/ 
- reiserfs), consuming all other disc space...

now I wanted to resize the root partition (booted with discs, so it wasn't 
mounted) from approx 9.5 to 9.2 GB.

however, resize_reiserfs stops with:

"resize_reiserfs: can't shrink fs; too many blocks already allocated"

strange, as partition has only approx. 1.6 GB data on it

Any hints?

(resize_reiserfs version is 3.6.4.)

T.I.A.

Harry
