I had read somewhere that you can only shrink partitions from the top
end. Was I wrong? That would be a lot easier than the dump/restore I had
been planning, similar to what Lester described. Although I would still
have to do the dump part anyway since I would never undertake something
like this without a backup, and the /boot partition is small enough that
a restore won't take that long.
