[ILUG] Repartioning

begin Diarmaid McGowan quotation:

> Is there a way to repartition (resize partitions) without losing data on

Back up your data, test the backup, blow away existing partitions,
make new partitions, restore data.

That's if you _value_ your files, and don't buy into the dubious
assurances of non-destructive repartitioning programs.

But, of course, most people don't want to hear that.
