Listmates,

After running out of room on my / partition on my Archlinux install and recovering by adding a couple of additional partitions, I put together a little howto in the wiki concerning the process in case anyone else finds themselves in the same situation:

As always, writing it up for the wiki took a whole lot longer than fixing the original problem, but now it's done. Look it over, add to it, find all my typos, etc.. Hopefully it will be useful.

Hi David, Another option would be LVM. With it you could easily grow your (logical) partitions and even adding another disk if needed. Armando
