Hi all,

I've just upgraded one of my disks from 8GB to 20GB and while Ghost would let 
me increase the size of my VFAT partition it wouldn't let me extend my ext3 
partition. (Fdisk output below)

Is it possible to increase the size of an existing partition or do I need to 
delete and recreate it?

If I need to delete/recreate it, how do I handle the swap file that I have on 
that partition?  Can I just tar it off and back like a normal file?  How do I 
disable/enable the swap file?

As the file is quite large and only contains transient data, could I delete 
the file first, and then recreate it afterwards? If so, how do I recreate it?
