Solaris 10 spac root 76% full

Hello,
I know that similar questions have been posted but my situation seems a bit different and would ask for assistance and or comments to proceed. My root was 97% full I moved much of my special programming and such over to a new disk. this got me down to 76%. This originally was a 146 gig drive. I have no idea where the disk space went. Here is the partition table to start out:

Code:

Part      Tag    Flag     Cylinders         Size            Blocks
  0       root    wm     413 -  1958       15.00GB    (1546/0/0)   31464192
  1       swap    wu       0 -   412        4.01GB    (413/0/0)     8405376
  2     backup    wm       0 - 14086      136.71GB    (14087/0/0) 286698624
  3 unassigned    wm    1959 -  3504       15.00GB    (1546/0/0)   31464192
  4 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)             0
  5 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)             0
  6 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)             0
  7 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)             0

Here is the output from df-k

Code:

/dev/dsk/c1t3d0s0    141157666   65553 139680537     1%    /stor

The root is /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0

I mean there seems to be a lot of unaccounted space here.
I have installed yet another 146 gig drive and created one big partion on it. Got that mounted and such. I want to copy all off root over to /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0 . I guess my question is can I leave the original disk as just a boot disk? Can I move all the files and stuff off of root to the new partition? Can you give me some steps to follow. Please.....

installboot

installboot(1M) 														   installboot(1M)

NAME

       installboot - install bootblocks in a disk partition

SYNOPSIS

       installboot bootblk raw-disk-device

       The boot(1M) program, ufsboot, is loaded from disk by the bootblock program which resides in the boot area of a disk partition.

       The  ufs  boot objects are platform-dependent, and reside in the /usr/platform/platform-name/lib/fs/ufs directory. The platform name can be
       found using the -i option of uname(1).

       The installboot utility is a SPARC only program. It is not supported on the  architecture.  users should use installgrub(1M) instead.

       bootblk	       The name of the bootblock code.

       raw-disk-device The name of the disk device onto which the bootblock code is to be installed; it must be a character device which is  read-
		       able and writable. Naming conventions for a SCSI or IPI drive are c?t?d?s? and c?d?s? for an IDE drive.

       Example 1: Installing UFS Boot Block

       To install a ufs boot block on slice 0 of target 0 on controller 1 of the platform where the command is being run, use:

	      example# installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk 
		   /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0

       /usr/platform/platform-name/lib/fs/ufs

	   directory where ufs boot objects reside.

       /platform/platform-name/ufsboot

	   second level program to boot from a disk or CD

WARNINGS

       The installboot utility fails if the bootblk or openfirmware files do not exist or if the raw disk device is not a character device.
