changing a partition size without erasing

lpx

Hi,

I have three partitions in a single hard drive, one for boot, other for swap and other for the system.

I would like to increse the size of swap without having to erase the system's partition.

Is there any way of doing that?

Many thx,

I've used it several times without problems. But needless to say, it is strongly recommended to backup before you do this.
