Here is my disklabel layout :
16 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg]
a: 307377 63 4.2BSD 2048 16384 304 # (Cyl.
0*- 304)
b: 196560 307440 swap # (Cyl. 305
- 499)
c: 4233600 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0
- 4199)
d: 245952 504000 4.2BSD 2048 16384 244 # (Cyl. 500
- 743)
e: 614880 749952 4.2BSD 2048 16384 328 # (Cyl. 744
- 1353)
f: 2868768 1364832 4.2BSD 2048 16384 328 # (Cyl. 1354
- 4199)
So f seems the last one (/usr).
And if i leave /var as it is, only /usr must be reduced.
But /usr has to be unmounted to make a backup, do it ?
That case can't get the system running.
Thanks for your time
