hi all,

first of all I'd like to say thanks to all of those who helped me with 
the linux iso question - I evenually picked up a copy of mandrake 9.0 
which I am using now.

I have a question however - my disk usage is as follows

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdd1               249871     39532    197439  17% /
none                         0         0         0   -  /proc
none                         0         0         0   -  /proc/bus/usb
none                         0         0         0   -  /dev
none                         0         0         0   -  /dev/pts
/dev/hda5              1249104     88500   1160604   8% /home
/dev/hda1              8209164   3106304   5102860  38% /mnt/windows
/dev/hdd7               421680      8863    391046   3% /tmp
/dev/hdd5               845256    797612      4708 100% /usr
/dev/hdd6               555564     51236    476108  10% /var


As you can see /usr is full - how do I re-allocate space from say /home 
to /usr. I have seen it done on solaris at work - but for the life of me 
I cant remember how it was done.

thanks in advance

Dale
