Good deal. As long as you're copying disk to disk, it ought to work.
Here's another trick that'll be useful to you:
You can back up entire disk images and restore them later. If you're editing your bootloader images, this is a good idea. Last resort, you can always set them back to "default".
first of all, sorry about my english...I´m a spanish newbie to this marvelous OS and i have just a couple of doubts...u know? :-)
1) how big should my swap partition be if i installed debian 2.2r3 or FreeBSD 4.x on a AMD k7 1400Mhz with 512Mb of Random Access Memory?

Hello,
I am trying to monitor disk space for each node on the machine. I am able to get all individual nodes but for the '/' node. For example:

Hi,
On one of our solaris servers, the root partition has filled up,(it was poorly sized in the first place), Does anyone have any advice about the best way to add space to a partition. I'm sure I've read how to do this somewhere before but just can't remember...:(

Hi
I'm doing some resilience testing and need to write a script to consume all of the available disk space on a partition and then to free it up again.
This would need to be -

I have a RHEL 5.3 machine with the following partitions and free space:
Free space on the partitions
/ : 74GB
/boot : 81MB
/var : 73GB
/home : 37GB
/icat : 758MB
/opt : 1.5GB
Now is it possible to allot a free space of some other partitions to /opt? I want around 100 GB more space... (4 Replies)

csx_Parse_CISTPL_DEVICEGEO(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers csx_Parse_CISTPL_DEVICEGEO(9F)NAME
csx_Parse_CISTPL_DEVICEGEO - parse the Device Geo tuple
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/pccard.h>
int32_t csx_Parse_CISTPL_DEVICEGEO(client_handle_t ch, tuple_t *tp, cistpl_devicegeo_t *pt);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI Specific (Solaris DDI)
PARAMETERS
ch Client handle returned from csx_RegisterClient(9F).
tp Pointer to a tuple_t structure (see tuple(9S)) returned by a call to csx_GetFirstTuple(9F) or csx_GetNextTuple(9F).
pt Pointer to a cistpl_devicegeo_t structure which contains the parsed Device Geo tuple information upon return from this function.
DESCRIPTION
This function parses the Device Geo tuple, CISTPL_DEVICEGEO, into a form usable by PC Card drivers.
The CISTPL_DEVICEGEO tuple describes the device geometry of common memory partitions.
STRUCTURE MEMBERS
The structure members of cistpl_devicegeo_t are:
uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].bus;
uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].ebs;
uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].rbs;
uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].wbs;
uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].part;
uint32_t info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].hwil;
The fields are defined as follows:
info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].bus
This field indicates the card interface width in bytes for the given partition.
info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].ebs
This field indicates the minimum erase block size for the given partition.
info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].rbs
This field indicates the minimum read block size for the given partition.
info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].wbs
This field indicates the minimum write block size for the given partition.
info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].part
This field indicates the segment partition subdivisions for the given partition.
info[CISTPL_DEVICEGEO_MAX_PARTITIONS].hwil
This field indicates the hardware interleave
RETURN VALUES
CS_SUCCESS Successful operation.
CS_BAD_HANDLE Client handle is invalid.
CS_UNKNOWN_TUPLE Parser does not know how to parse tuple.
CS_NO_CARD No PC Card in socket.
CS_NO_CIS No Card Information Structure (CIS) on PC Card.
CS_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION No PCMCIA hardware installed.
CONTEXT
This function may be called from user or kernel context.
