[CALUG] repartitioning on the fly

[David Salinas]

I had to do a double-take on that one. I thought she meant Red Hat AS
4.1. I was like, "Cool! Redhat AS 4.1 has come out already!? Great!"

Then I re-read the email. Redhat 4.1!? Yikes! :) 

Or should I say, :(

By the way, I've never found away to rebuild a servers file system when
one of those partitions were part of swap. Not even sure that LVM can
do that.

I recommend: https://www.redhat.com/en_us/USA/rhel/compare/server/

Or the free Fedora: http://www.redhat.com/en_us/USA/fedora/

Use hardware RAID if you can. And LVM so you can re-size your
partitions later if you need to (not swap!).
