Hi, I purchased a new VPS service running ubuntu 11.04 32 bit. My prior VPS services just had 1 partition and was straight forward. However my new one has 3 and I would like to know how to merge the 'tmp' partition with the largest one.
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 34G 1.2G 31G 4% /
none 242M 176K 242M 1% /dev
none 249M 0 249M 0% /dev/shm
none 249M 48K 248M 1% /var/run
none 249M 0 249M 0% /var/lock
/dev/sda6 1.9G 35M 1.8G 2% /tmp
/dev/sda2 92M 27M 61M 31% /boot
I don't want or need that temp partition so I would prefer to remove it along with any page file and increase the size of sda3. Also what is with the other four 249 meg blocks? What would be the best way to deal with this?
