Nope!
If you want to resisze a partition you'll have to erase it first,
recreate it, then copy all the files back in again.. :)

..However, 32Mb should be enough for a / partition, however if you
have /tmp, /var, or /home on the / partition, these
can fill up the root partition pretty quicky, so its
a good idea to move them out of the / partition and into
a another one (/usr for example). You could do this
by symlinking them to the new directories..
