Package: ext2resize (1.1.19-9)

an ext2 filesystem resizer

ext2resize resizes ext2 and ext3 filesystems. This is useful if you run out of space on one partition, or have too much free space on another.

Online resizing is also supported, this allows to enlarge mounted filesystem. It is similar to the resize2fs program from e2fsprogs. Online resizing support was added to the linux kernel in version 2.6.10.

Warning: Although the program is quite safe these days, if you do something wrong things will go wrong badly. Watch out when using programs like this.
