I am trying to figure out how to = increase /root=20 partition on my new 4.1.1 install

The online docs seem to cover features = on disklable=20 editor that are no longer available, such as the

(e) edit function

I have spent a few days with a failed = upgrade from=20 4.0 ( I blew away /usr/src/sys by mistake when I was trying to delete = ../../obj=20 and couldn't boot a kernel

So I started from scratch, I have = successfully=20 gotten a new kernel set up with firewall options in place.

All seems ready to move forward with my = 2 NIC'd=20 firewall /gateway ( currently using Winproxy on NT 4 )

BSDBOX, but then I noticed that there's = only 11%=20 avail from my 50 mb root partition.

/Usr is derived from /root, = right?

Can I and is it possible to break /usr = out from=20 root and / or expand root while maintaining the new system I have = painstakingly=20 set up?

thanks,

J. Steinberg Sf Calif
