Siemens and Sony Ericsson both have type 10 phones. In terms of speed, Orange gives throughput of 40-45kbps (depending on location and singel strength).

The problem with reliance is that it does not give steady throughput and is comparatively expensive.

Evening Nikhil,

What is the partition type ?

I am interested in increasing the /var partition on my harddrive. It is only

<snip> Is extra space available on disk ?

250 Mb currently and I would like to allocate more space to this partition.

<snip> As a common solution. U can always copy "/var" data to some other partition and recrete "/var" with willing size. Format it and copy back the date.

Regards, Animesh.

Can someone suggest how to go about it.

Thanks Nikhil

hi

visit for partion tools : 1. http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/

Alternative:

1. Add a new HDD, format it using fdisk/GNU parted 2. mount it as /var after copying the entire data from the current /var partition using # cp -a /oldvar /newvar

Evening Nikhil,

I am interested in increasing the /var partition on my harddrive. It is only 250 Mb currently and I would like to allocate more space to this partition.

The partitions are as follows :

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted On /dev/hda2 110G 4.8G 100G 5% / /dev/hda1 99M 9.2M 85M 10% /boot none 109M 0 109M 0% /dev/shm

<snip> Partition is a portion of the disk reserved for a specific file system and function.

/dev/hda2 / ( this is root partition. ) /dev/hda1 /boot ( this is boot partition. ) none /dev/shm ( this is swap partition. )

So now ur "/var" directory is on "/" ( root partition ). So in this case if u want to put "/var" on specific partition, then U should have space more space left on ur hda disk or add aditional disk. Create partition and mount it to specific place and copy the entire "/var" directory data to mounted partition and then make the appro. changes in "/etc/fstab" file to reflect. U r set to go now :-)

Reagrds, Animesh.

Can someone suggest how to go about it.

Thanks Nikhil
