Exercise 14: NoMore Paper

To solve this problem, log in as root and open YaST to interact with disks and perform creation and partitioning tasks graphically. Choose System, Partitioner, and a warning appears. Heed this warning carefully for it fully means what it says you can do irreversible damage if you are not careful.

After you choose Yes to the warning, the partition table shown in Figure 4.20 appears.

Figure 4.20. You can work with the partitions from this interface.

NOTE

The actual partition table that is displayed depends on the disks and partitions in use on your system. You will see something similar to this figure, but not this figure per se.

Increase the size of the swap partition and apply the changes.

NOTE

The partition proposal in exercise 1 leaves room for resizing the swap partition. The Linux native / partition cannot be resized to allow for more disk space if it already uses the entire hard disk.
