Re: resizing ext3.
I am using ext3 and when I type df it shows:
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda7 15522 2616 12105 18% /boot
none 63380 0 63380 0% /dev/shm
/dev/hda1 1226516 920660 305856 76% /mnt/windows
/dev/hdb1 530132 469324 60808 89% /mnt/remove
/dev/hda5 2020180 1892432 127748 94% /mnt/dgi
/dev/hda6 1429753 1244291 185462 88% /mnt/ntfs
how do I know the free size of an ext3 fs?

Monterey... is decidedly the pleasantest and most civilized-looking place
in California ... [it] is also a great place for cock-fighting, gambling
