You can't extend a fast file system. It would be nice if one could do but
the disk layout of the file system is completely fixed at creation time. 

What you can do is to create a new file system if there's free disk space
on your system and to move directory trees from `/' to the new filesystem.
After that, create symbolic links for each tree from the new destination
to `/'.
