I need to know how to get linux to see a second partition. I am using
RH4.2. I have a 170M root partition and  a 512M /usr partition and
swap. The other day the /usr partition ran out of space while
installing a program.I have made a new 512M partition and mounted it
but  would like linux to see the new patition and the /usr as
one.Bascily to increase the size of  the /usr partition. Can this be
done? How do I go about doing this?    thankyou.
