we've got a client who put a horrible partitioning scheme in
place on their raid-mirror setup -- and are wondering if we can
remotely run 'parted' to recover from this...?
$ df
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/md1 72090640 869700 68291332 2% /
/dev/md2 3747472 434952 3160232 13% /var
/dev/md0 93207 5344 84013 6% /boot
there's plenty of room for more partitions, if we can shrink
/<root> down to a coupla gig (from 68!)
$ mount
/dev/md1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/md2 on /var type ext3 (rw)
/dev/md0 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
$ fdisk -l

is this raid /dev/md* stuff something that parted can handle?
the client machine is 1200 miles from here -- we'd rather leave
it as-is and symlink everything than risk borking the machine
from afar.
