hi,

i need some information on how to change/add a partition size.

for example, the result of my free bsd is :

Filesystem 	1K-blocks 	Used 		Avail 		Capacity 	Mounted on 
/dev/sd0a 		31775 		27828 		1405 		95% 		/ 
/dev/sd0s2f 	2076240 	283497 		1626644 	15% 		/usr 
/dev/sd0s2e 	29727 		15311 		12038 		56% 		/var 
procfs 		4 			4 			0 			100% 		/proc

i need to add the size of 	/var

my questins are:
1. without adding a hard drive, i will add /var size by downsizing /usr
size. is it possible ? if yes, how to do it ?

2. by adding a new hard drive, how can i move /var to the new hard drive ?

thank you.
regards,
dibyo gahari
