Hi

I recently upgraded a server from 2.1.6 to 2.2.5, keeping all the data 
intact (ie. I didn't reformat the disks).   However, now I 
have problems every time I boot, there are "rejecting partition" messages 
for many of my partitions.

It still boots and works okay, but it's a worry.

One problem is that I think the root partition has shrunk, it shows as 95% 
full and regularly makes processes fall over
because there isn't enough disk space on root left!

Does anybody know how to modify the disklabels to avoid this problem...I 
really can't afford to delete and rebuild the system 
because it is in production...

Any help would be appreciated.  Please reply to my email as well as the 
listgroup.

Thanks

Livio
