The default root file-system is not big enough for my needs. How do I enlarge it (the file-system; that is)? I've tried creating a larger partition with Maccreate and mkfs, copying the old root to the bigger root and finally changing the configuration to point to the new root. Unfortunately, this doesn't work! Please let me in on the secret. _______________________________________________________________________ | __ ______ _________ J.C.
