Hi
I would like to change the swap partition size in linux Mandrake 9.
Do I have to unmount the swape partition and use fdisk to change the size?
Lisa

You certanly have to swapoff the partition being resized, _and_ the surrounding
ones too.

use GNU parted or something similar (usage documentation included).
