Hi! I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 x64. Currently, my system is setup as follows: - / is in a Raid 1 array (/dev/md0) consisting of two partitions - sda1 and sdb1 (ca. 148 GB); - swap in Raid 0 (/dev/md1) - sda2 and sdb2 of ca. 1 GB each giving me 2 GB in total: - sda and sdb are two disks of 160GB: - I do not have a separate /home file system. I would like to correct this situation by doing the following: - resize the partition containing the / file system to 27 GB keeping it in RAID 1 (/dev/md0); - create a new partition of 120GB to mount /home, also in RAID 1 (/dev/md2); - change swap from a RAID 0 to a RAID 1, resizing it to 2GB (/dev/md1). Can this be done without reinstalling everything from scratch?
