OK - please pardon me if this is a basic/duh-type question (I searched on
DebianHELP but no luck):
I want to resize my main Debian/Linux partition to make room for a new
partition to hold FreeBSD. I have a 30G hd so I doubt it will be a
problem, but ... I don't know how to check how much of the main Deb
partition is occupied! This is, I guess, a basic admin task I should know
how to do, but ... I don't.
Once I know, I assume I can use GNU Parted (or fdisk) to take care of the
rest ...
But I'm also a bit cloudy re: how to get FreeBSD to the right place once I
download it ... thanks for yr patience as I think out loud. :-)
